My first support design. I figure something like this should damp vibrations enough. This is easy since I don't have a distributor.

Meanwhile, I got a new oil seal (and spare) for the crank end. These are Erling, for those keeping score.

I popped out the old seal, and discovered another potential leak.

The case seam in the seal recess is not even at the bottom. You can see a small raised edge, that is obvious by feel. The top is fine.

Axially?

I am not sure if I would be concerned with this. Did you get the oil pump straightened out?

Yes, the offset was axial. I was concerned that the small step would keep the rubber on the outside of the seal from seating in full contact and could weep oil.

Time to start putting things back together. First I dressed the outside sealing surface of the fan hub with some 800 grit.

Then I got the seal ready to install, with a bit of grease on the sealing lip.

Turns out my PVC pipe wheel cap tool is the right size for seating the seal.
