[V8] Stick a fork in the V8 I am done ;-)

Well I decided to keep the beast... I located my Oil Leak, Ordered the 
gasket kit to replace them.. I have located my dreaded Pentosin Leak.. I 
just need to go to dealer tomorrow and order a part for that.. That X bolt.

Now onto the odd problem. I thought the fuel pump was going out however 
I have diagnosed it and the fuel pump is not making any noise... When 
running I hear noise coming from the fuel filter area but it is not the 
Fuel Pump? Any BTDT?

Also when I shut off the car if I release the pressure in the gas cap 
the whine ends.. Any help here please? Other than that I just need to do 
a Oil Change, I inspected my timing belt and it has no cracks or any 
sign of needing to be replaced just yet. I am paranoid and want to 
replace those bastards every 40k miles ;-)
