    that’s amazing. I hope it does! Gas just jumped to 4.04 where I am so I’m glad I’m not driving my tundra anymore.

    Is that permatex squishing out? It looks too dark for new oil.

    I only used a very little amount on the o ring. I didn’t permatex the whole oil pump. And I have the royal purple in remember so the oil is dark already.

    Oh yeah that’s right I forgot your cousin put the Valvoline in then you changed to the Royal Purple.

    See what @0’Silver_Taco suggests he seems to really know these 3rz engines.

    Well...my half moons leak a little......so no one is perfect

    I would just clean and watch it....

    it could be hair line passage weeping a little

    it might seal off


    Good news is all that's new and will come apart fast without any issues

    I dont like your phillip screws.....I like the allen ones from lce
    which of course their out of.....

    think I have an extra set

    Yeah I’ll clean it and keep an eye on it. If it keeps leaking I’ll have to pull the crank pulley and tighten them and see if that helps.

    I put permatex on my fingers and rubbed the o ring through it and then stuck it to the block in the groove for the oil pump.

    It looks like a small seep so clean it up and see what happens with it. If you do pull the crank pulley can you come up with something to replace those Phillip screws?

    yeah I think so. I’ll buy some all ones. But personally I liked the phillips ones more because you can’t really over tighten them with a screen driver. I guess I didn’t tighten them enough. I thought I did.

    Don’t let it get you down it’s repairable
    Don’t let it get you down it happens and you did an excellent job IMO.
