Thanks Julie! Thats just about a little over hand tight Id recon. Will correct and report back. I have a feeling I never should have opened that oil pump in the first place…

It's always important to open the pump up Alex,  inspect it for signs of damage caused by any debris that has been going around the engine and replace the O rings. So many people don't bother doing it when they overhaul the engine. For the short time it takes and the small cost involved,  its worth doing.
