I run a thin belt conversion and have an oil leak from the timing chain =
cover. New seal at rebuild 2 years ago. Leaked from initial startup but =
now getting worse. I know about speedy sleeves and might try that.=20

My question is this. Has anyone else experienced excessive leakage while =
using the thin belt conversion? The Moss instructions imply that the =
seal rides on the spacer installed behind the damper pulley.=20
Has anyone found a double lip seal replacement to the standard supplied =
seal and if yes do you have a reference P/N?

Thanks and Merry Christmas. The New Year has to be better than 2020.
