She just leaks

[Poser]

but, IIRC, you then have to pull the timing cover as it comes out the back.

Seal is removed out the front of the cover...

Nobody mentioned the front timing cover, seal or cover plate. I've seen plenty of them leak too. Mark A.

Miss this?

Typically, a rocker cover gasket leak along the front or rear of the engine can create quite the mess, as can a front cover/main seal leak.

Dave man...


Remove that other tin cover held on by the 6mm diameter, 10mm head bolts, and you might just see the oil leaking out from between the pan and the gasket and you should be able to see if it is leaking from the seal or up higher which could be a cam frost plug or an oil galley plug....


I would bet that it is just the pan gasket.....



Good luck!
