[ba] STILL time for a timing belt

[Buchholz, Steven]

... my pleasure ... I do hope it works for you!  Be careful not to drill too
far, the oil pump housing is alloy!

What sort of valve cover gasket did you get ... cork or "rubber"?  ISTR that
the half round plug for the back was molded into the "rubber" gasket ... I
know for a fact that the piece that goes over the front cam hold down is
part of the black "rubber" gasket.
