Nice tip about the stats.  Also other good info.  You
should easily be able to find the oil seal for the cam
at any bearing supply house.  They had them in stock
when I went looking.  They might be 1mm thicker.  This
is the case when I look for generic replacements for
most of Audis (Kaco) seals.  I think they spec. them
1mm less and odd numbers to make them "special".
