3vze oil pump
Hey guys. Brand new here and I have a question hopefully somebody can help me. I have a 92 4runner with the v6 that developed very bad oil leak from the front of the motor. It looked like the oil pan gasket at first but upon further inspection i found it coming out of the bottom timing cover. I took the whole front of the motor apart to get down to where I am now. Cam seals look good. I am going to replace crank seal on outside of oil pump anyways so I got that out. But I am puzzled. There is so much oil sprayed around in there I can't pinpoint the leak. I see there is fipg between the oil pump and block could this be the issue? I am trying not to drop the diff and oil pan if I don't have to. So basically do you think the crank seal will fix the leak or do I need to remove the pump too and reseal it to the motor. I know your going to say do your research but I have googled everything and Yota teched it but nothing is pointing me in the right direction. Any help is appreciated. PS the leak only happened when the motor is warm so when I start it no leak then after warmed up about 2-3 minutes of idling it will start gushing out constant steady stream. Thanks in advance..
