Confirm this is my profile gasket
« on: October 04, 2011, 10:18:17 PM »
I just finished the Mess under the intake and replaced my thermostat while I was there.  Drove great with no leaks that night.  The next day this leak pops up.  Looks like it is coming from the corner of the timing cover, right under the tensioner bolt.

Is this the profile gasket gone bad?

It does look like a bad profile gasket, though I'm not sure why that'd happen with a hose delete...  You might be able to see inside the cam case to verify the leak if you pull the cam cover.
