PackardV8, Thanks for the input. About a year ago I did bid on a real nice gasket making kit on ebay but, was outbid at the last minute. I'll keep looking.

Question? Is it normal to have side play in the oil pump drive shaft to the distributor. I noticed some sludge around the seal and used a magnet to see if there was any metal particles in it and the top of the shaft would tilt sidewards when contacting the magnet. The seal looks good.
