replace HPOP gasket?

Has anyone had a major oil leak from their HPOP gasket? MY 02 is leaking bad.
Is it an easy R/R or is it best to have a trained shop do the job?

Here this should help you. Not a bad job just time consuming. are you sure it's not your non serviceable plug?

Besides what Deluxe06 posted - also look for the "HPOP Non-Serviceable Plug" as the culprit.
Also provided from Guzzle serviceable-replacement-hpop-plug.html

Had the same issue myself. Decided to do the above fixes along with new lines/o-rings just to be safe.
No issues in almost a year now.
