Confirm my plans...or not
I've been MIA for about 2 years here but am back home and I've gotten spring fever and will be bringing in my 92 5-spd soon to a great subaru tuning shop nearby to patch an oil leak. The leak, they think, is behind the engine and would require removal of the enging.
That being said, I just wanted to confirm what else I should have them do while back there and where to source the parts... 1) Seal everything - subaruparts seal kit... 2) timing belt and oil pump - that ebay deal - is it still around/worthwhile 3) oil pump - necessary? source for parts? 4) other suggestions? im having some aesthetic stuff down around the drivers side and the interior as well.

Valve Covers Rear Main seals Spark plugs If you have no idea when the last time the water pump and timing belt was done do it. Not sure about the Oil pump but if you are determined to replace it do so with a OEM Subaru part only. Having that fail on your is almost certainly a engine taking a dump. Pulling the trans out will allow access to the likely rear main seal that is leaking but pulling the engine works the same way. Also check all the vacuum and other lines for hard brittle lines.
