My 3.9 V8 sump leaks oil (nothing new I expect). I've had a good look around for the source of the leak and have concluded that the sump gasket is the culprit. Replacing this is a pig on my car because it has an early Librands 'crossover' exhaust, so I want to make sure I get it right. I've read all sorts of advice regarding gasket replacement ie cork gasket, rubber gasket, apply sealant or not, so I'm hoping to get some definitive advice. Rutters stock a cork gasket which allegedly fits all Rover V8's so I'm tempted to go this way but thought I'd seek any further advice before committing.
Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks.
