Blown AOS & Oil leaks - Look what I found........

[srad34]

I plan to replace the whole pump assembly.
The remainder of the bolt is 1.5cm long, hopefully I can find the rest in the sump/filter. Its too small to be a load bearing bolt, similar to a sump bolt etc but without stripping the engine, not much hope.
I am planning to fit a magnetic sump plug too so any debris may be picked up here. I still have the drained out to filter too - can't wait!

I know you have to buy a new pump, I'm talking about the part that bolts to the cam & drives the pump by twisting the part that broke on the pump. Maybe the bolt was from the lifter guide that has about 20 bolts to fasten it to the head.
