Greg... there's a seal in the timing chest cover... I remember replacing
that when I did my tensioner/chain.... is it as simple as that or am I
missing something? (likely)...

 Hi all,

I've identified an oil leak coming from the timing chest cover on my
Ambo (not the belt cover, but the timing chest cover itself). I've
already ordered new gaskets from MG Cycle, but I'm wondering if there is
any other advice someone might be able to offer on getting this leak
sealed up. Use gasket sealer? Use two gaskets stacked? Any bolt holes to
plug? Thanks!
