Hello,
Appreciate the help so far, thanks.
My latest problem with this recent project is a very small oil leak through the crankshaft oil seal into the alternator housing, it is seeping past the new oil seal lip, not from the oil seal housing.
I don’t know what has caused it, I had new con rods fitted so the crankshaft has been apart, but the alignment was checked by 2 independent companies, prior to installing, the seal is new and fitted correctly.
I seem to have 2 options, either live with the leak or change the seal?
Has anyone changed this seal before with the engine in situ and if so can you please advise on the best way to do it.

Regards Nick
