Dave,
The =E2=80=9Cfront seal=E2=80=9D you refer to is the one pressed onto the t=
iming chain
cover. The associated part that provides the surface on which the oil seal
rides, is the crankshaft oil sleeve. Both of these parts are pretty
standard and readily available.
Another common source of front oil leaks is the front engine sealing block.
The front of the oil pan and the lower part of the timing cover bolt onto
this engine sealing block. Often, the threads of the original aluminum
sealing block get stripped and it causes an oil leak. Goodparts sells a
superior steel block that I=E2=80=99ve used and recommend. They also sell t=
he front
oil seal and crank sleeve.
The leak could also be from a failing gasket on the oil pan or timing chain
cover. If you replace the front oil seal, the crank sleeve and the engine
sealing block, you=E2=80=99ll end up replacing both of these gaskets as wel=
l.
Hope this helps.
Bob
Fredericksburg, VA
