Turbine Doc did an excellent pictoral on the place. I recommend it to everyone. This job wasn't that bad at all. I couldn't believe how 'square' the old orings were, they felt like hard plastic squares.

Re-installed with a fresh oil change and no leak there now.

I also engine cleaned the entire underside of engine with degreaser and roll of shop rags.... Looks nice now, and didn't take that long .. I got all into the truck today :)

I did see the factory Oil cooler lines... I touched the safety clip and it crumbled in my hand :(... So I left it alone, zip tied across to a stud and i'll put that on the to-do list.

I can see how much easir it would be w/out xover pipe, so i'll prolly change those at the same time as the cooler/SS lines.

I bonded with the underside of my truck today. Gonna try to make it leak free.

Once again Turbine Doc, Thank you very much for your work here.
