Would you have a link to helpful quick video with musical accompaniment showing someone removing an engine from a Westfield?

To make the complete video you just need some scantily clad ladies to hold your tool(s) for you next time Mark :d:laugh:

On close inspection in the garage it would seem there is an oil leak :down:

Seems to be between block and head. thoughts?

Is the oil leak running all the way along the exhaust side?

Don't forget to label everything on that look as you pull it out

yeah, think it runs all the way down the exhaust side. Why, what's your thoughts?

That looks like the CAS oil seal to me. Cheep fix.

It's hard to tell if the oil on the side of the block is also from there (I think it may be) or has possibly come from higher up from the cam cover gasket.
