Yeah I thought the questions regarding the hash on the crank was brought up before? I too thought this was an aftermarket crank.

Just to say, applying sealant to the block/cap mating surfaces is a no-no, it should be dry & clean. It won't leak there ever. (and can contaminate the bearing surfaces and/or cause torque reading problems.)

The only time you see leaks there is from the seal parting line.

If you don't believe me, call BOP and ask.
