Is your ICP under the turbo or on passenger side valve cover? Why would the speedy sleave, if your rear main crank seal is leaking, be any better than installing a new one? You would move the trans back instead of pulling the engine.

The block is 2 piece so you would not disturb the oil pan. Rear view
