She thinks I am a bit wacko but this digging for stuff- info is fun.

Some must remember the pain with getting pan rails clean if you were the first person to remove a 69 396 oil pan.

Same on the silver valve cover gaskets.
They ended up in a jillion chunks everywhere.

Then you put the rubber ones in and of course leaked.
