Better de-grease and seal the new front cover with the right stuff if you don't want it to leak.
I didnt take the trans apart lol just reolaced the bearing retainer cover, which was definitely completely shot, and im glad i bought one.
It was not only squealing, but had so much scoring, that i could feel it when running just my fingertips over it.

I got the oem toyota specific sealant for that cover, and the correct sealant equivalent. Even cleaned the sealant off the old bolts.

In any case, since i did the rear main seal, im afraid of the "cover" for that seal now being off.
I heard that the crank sensor looks for a specific location on that cover.

When looking at it, there was nothing special about it that i saw. It just looked like an intermediary cover between the flywheel and the engine.

Should i be worried about the position of that cover?
