There is not enough space to get gasket in as you can see. i can loosen the motor mounts and use leverage to push engine to the side a little, but i have to use force to push it and Im afraid of damaging something. I was going to use liquid marine gasket instead. Does anyone have any suggestions besides pulling whole engine out to change it?_IMG_000000_000000 (1).jpg _IMG_000000_000000.jpg

Can you take the bolts out one by one and the cover will come out......clean the surface, put permetex on, let set for a little while it starts to cure a touch then put the cover back on and insert bolts one by one?
