Need opinion on oil leak. I replaced all oil hoses to pump and beyond, including checkvalves. It appears I have a leak under the oil pump (possibly near the square cover plate on the bottom of the pump). I will probably need to pull the pump but need advise on major issues that I would encounter. Additionally, if the cover plate is leaking, is there a gasket replacement or am I looking at total replacement of the pump. For information, the leak was apparent before hose replacement and reappeared after filling the oil resevoir. It definitely is not coming from parts prior to entering the oil pump (oil leak is clean oil). I did not start the engine since replacing the hoses, therefore oil has not gone beyond the pump. No oil in the injection lines at this point. Please advise.
