Evil Handy Man
Getting ready to fire the 340, threw some new antifreeze in and after several days sitting (no run time at all) I have a leak at one of the two lower most bolts on the drivers side of the timing cover. I have not take in apart yet but looking at pictures it looks like the very bottom one by the pan is blind and the one above it looks to go into the water jacket? I have yet to see in the pan has coolant in it, the dip stick is dry (I have not put oil in it).
I had this area apart to install my CVF power steering brackets so I may just need to remove, clean and seal the thread(s). There is no coolant leaking above this point that I can tell.
FYI motor is fresh, un-fired with new core plugs done by the machine shop.
