So I was trying to change the seal on the fan Hub, Big leak, when tring to remove the fan hub from the crank it required a puller and an indordinate amount of pressure to break free. Once it had broken free I found that the crank keyway had sheared and was in two pieces. This had happened prior to our buying the car but is one more thing that has shown up during the Tune-Up (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) and leak fix that keeps growing with leaps and bounds (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chair.gif) . any Ideas on cause?

So for everyones information the key fit nicely, the Fan hub was replaced due to the finish in the bore, the crank was fine with a very little stoning. The new seal was installed with Lubriplate to protect it during start up. and now I'm checking the end play and replacing the rear seal. The "O" ring was in the gasket kit.

Thanks to everyone especially the Cap'n for telling me about the "O" ring.
