I wasn't refering to the seals as needing goo. I just remember a while ago someone swearing that genuine nissan seals have never leaked for them and they had nothing but trouble with non-genuine items. I was just wondering with the goo as I plan to use it for the sump and timing cover, as well as the rear bearing cap seals. As it is, my damn engine in the car at the moment leaks a little around the oil pump where is bolts to the timing cover and from the front inspection plate. I don't what it happening again because it shits me off no end.
