All o-rings on top of engine. Get em done while you can access backs of heads, etc.

Oil pan if original is metal. Also, check the metal fuel lines near the front axle to see if they're rusted out. Much easier to do in an empty engine compartment. If mine was ever out again, I'd probably see how much new up pipes cost too.

I believe most all orings have been replaced in the last two years.

Going to a new oil pan,will check the fuel lines. Already have bellowed uppipes. Depending on how long its down,I might just put the T4 pipes in and go from there.

Yeah,got the pipes. Just need to decide on the turbo. Build the oil lines and cooler tubes.
