Oil pump

The job is done and she is running again
Can't go for a run though as we have 3 inches of snow 
I did the oil transfer housing at the same time so I hope there will be no leaks now... the job was straightforward and didn't actually take long. As suggested I packed the pump with vaseline before putting it back and I decided to try turning the engine over with the plugs out to prime it. I was amazed when the oil light went out in 3 seconds!! Phew!
I also discovered that the downpipe had been blowing at the manifold, very strange as I had not heard anything unusual.
Thanks again for your help everyone, I was a little nervous about playing with the oil pump.
Brian. I'm not the messiah either!!Drive a Stag every day... it's wonderful!
