I have cleaned my engine (F) to locate my oil leak. It appears to be leaking from the fuel pump(mechanical). Logic would say...replace the gasket and all is well, right?
I did all of this and the leak is continuing, just as bad as before. What gives? On a somewhat thorough cleaning, I saw no damage to the pump, but once the engine is running, I get a fairly steady stream of oil from the pump area, dripping down on the plate below. Could the pump housing be cracked? Have any of you seen this? Where can I source an OEM pump for my '71?
