P/Ns to fix oil leaks required

I have had a number of small oil leaks coming from my car for approx 20 years, but have noticed lately they seen to be getting worse - 4 to 6 drops a day.

I have the following leaks -

Front of engine, suspect oil pump.

Output shaft area of gearbox.

Join between the engine and gearbox - unsure till I take it apart.
(while apart should I replace the flex-plate, I remember seeing somewhere that there is a stronger version - thicker).


What I require are part numbers for the various seals or o-rings and flex-plate.

TIA

Re: P/Ns to fix oil leaks required

Forget about the earlier message - I think Wingers Subaru here on the North Shore in Auckland were telling me load of porkies!!

found the leak(s) from both engine sump and the gearbox sump + 1 in-hex allen bolt at lower front of engine.

In-hex bolts all now done up to 35 Nm

Engine sump 10 out of 12 bolts done up to 12 Nm (other 2 will need to be done while on hoist).

Gearbox sump 8 out of 16 bolts done up to 12 NM (the rest I should have looked at when car was all in the air - so another hoist job)

But best news of all - I picked up a working headlight washer pump - from 1991 suzuki escudo - picture attached, filled it with WD40 for an hour and away she went, just have to modify the 2 pin round connector (leaving it in place and adding a rectangular 2-pin to match the SVX loom).

Better to pay NZ$27 from Pick A Part than over NZ$140 for the same thing from Wingers.

It is going to be a great week - ......
