I have oil leaking from cam housings at points/advance. Did some looking and see the seal can be bad, new ones on order. Left side of the motor there was oil in the housing. Right side on both inside and outside. I have all parts removed and working on cleaning everything up. In process of removing the right side housing, the gasket broke apart. Looking at MikeXS, I don’t see where I can find replacement gasket that is between cam housing and the head. Does anyone know part number and place to get this?
Most sites I have visited the gasket is incorrectly called out and references breather gasket. The one I removed has a step in it which I believe is for additional sealing. I found reference to flat gasket and o-ring used, this is not the style I have.
Additionally, I have read about the cam not being centered when installed which leads to sealing issues. As long as I measure distance from head to bearing (depth) and if same, is it safe to assume this isn’t an issue for me?
