hey guys being a Chevy guy crossing over I have not had the front timing cover off a 5.0 yet...here is the question I picked up the 5.0 GT vert off of Craig's tonight...
it was kicking water out on the ground under the water pump and when I crawled under to see what was going on I see where there is a half circle wear mark on the timing chain cover above the balancer,,wtf I think......oil is clean and it makes decent press...but I swear I am looking at the opening into the timing chain area...and the really weird part is I swear it looks like it wore from the outside in!
you guys seen anything like this before??? I need to trailer the car home in the next day or so and I forgot my dig camera when I went to look at it, so I cant put up a pic of what I am talking about.
car runs and drive great just tossing water on the ground pretty fast, pretty sure its from the bearing relief hole on the pump.
any feedback is appreciated.
Thnx Bud.
