Thnx ByP. I had plenty of SI5900 left so I took the time to clean up the surfaces and reseal it this morn. Used an extremely narrow bead going to the inside of all bolt holes (didn’t surround the bolt holes) on the engine casing. It held fine, plenty of time to fit the pan. Nominal to no seepage to the outside when torqued down (7 ft/lb). Didn’t have a chance to scope it but I’ll do it Monday morn. I think I’ll be in good shape now (if it doesn’t leak).
