I have a leak coming from the oil pump case behind the timing belt.What is the name of this piece.The leak is definiteley from the case.I first thought crankshaft front seal,replaced it.Was hoping for a cam seal leak,negative.I believe the case is cracked.I have no choice but to fix it.The leak is too annoying.I am am a automotive tech plenty of tools.How involved is this job?Any advice?Or help?Thanks

I am redoing my timing belt noticed the front crank seal is leaking like crazy.Any ideas on how to remove.Thank you in advance.Is this a common problem?

Thanks.I will go for it.

I have a 94 pathfinder 3.0.I replaced the heads due to bent valves from a broken timing belt.I got the camshafts lined up could not see a mark for the crank did my best by lining the crank key at approximateley 11 o'clock and mark on the crank gear at approx. 5 o'clock.I don't think it is right the truck runs rough smells a little rich and just seems to lack power.Surprisingly no check engine light on.I thought if I was off on the timing belt the check engine light would surely come on.Also my crank pulley has 7 marks on it.Which one is TDC.When I go back in.I will try to set with the pulley mark.There is just no mark for the crank gear on the darn housing.Help me if you can thanks
