Err... I don't think he has put enough of that red goo  :-\ Would imagine he should have filled the whole lump with that stuff. Replace oil with that glue/instat gasket and for sure the cam covers will stop leaking. Might also cause engine to stop but hey, who cares  :o

Simply shocking. I'm feeling speachless but then again, how much worse that can really be compared to replacing the seals. other than it just looks terrible.

I'll give that about 500 miles before the oil strainer clogs and it throws a rod through the side of the block.

I've just made contact with him and as his skills no no bounds I have agreed to let him decorate a cake. With piping skills like that I'm on to a winner  ::)
