yeah i figured that thoes things are part of the gasket,i know the gaskets on right cuz theres only one way for the gasket to sit properly. but my oil has been leaking in the front right corner in the sump area. thats where it starts each time i do this. the gasket is squeezed out a little in that corner, should i loosen it then retighten it till its about to start squeezing out. By the way its a B16A block. i take it it should already have a perfect seal and it doesnt need time?
