Hi, we installed the rebuilt 2.0 motor back in the car today and ran into a little "glitch" those darn gremlins keep popping up. As you can see from the photo there's a gap of about an inch in one corner. The rest is OK. Two questions, did we do something wrong when we installed the seal or perhaps this is common and not such a big deal. Thanks in advance, you guys have all been a tremendous help.

The whole engine and tranny package can be moved forward, just loosen up the four bolts without removing them and use a pry bar to jockey it forward. Helps if you take some weight off with a floor jack.
