Oil leak question

After cleaning and checking several times my leak appears to be the oil pump housing. I replaced the front seal thinking that was it but it wasn't.

Is there any special details I need to pay attention to when removing the pump housing and replacing the seal and reinstalling it?

Thanks for your help!

i have this same leak, leaks about 2 drops of oil at shut down sometimes. The oil pump is sealed to the front cover by an o ring. So yau are pretty much looking at the same job you just did plus pulling the oil pump off and replacing the oring.

Is there anything special like adjustments or clearances or anything that I need to pay particular attention to?

Thanks
