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!
