My god, of course it is. I knew that already - don't know where my head was at there…  :o

Yup, all it takes is 1 tiny particle left and you wreck a crank journal, its why i dont do jobs where the cases need painting

In regards to the last one, are you talking about the gallery that feeds the main bearings for the crankshaft?

Bryanj:
Yes, a screwed in cap at points end and a plug with O ring held in by generator cover at other
