I swapped out the HPOP and now I have a constant oil leak in the engine valley.

I used a new gasket, but should I have put some gasket sealer on there ?? The old one didnt have any on it so I just assumed.

Whats the torque specs for the HPOP bolts, since they are only 10m bolts, I would think it would be too high.. Maybe I over torqued them and ruined the gasket.

Any comments appreciated..

Should be 18 lb/ft I think. I replaced my HPOP and installed a new gasket with no sealant. Should be fine with just the molded gasket. Make sure it is lined up properly.

Thanks for the info..

18 lbs/ft isnt much, I may have gone way over board..
