Timing belt/adjuster round cover seal: I could not find the part number for seal that goes over the timing cover and the timing belt adjuster. If it needs to be replaced, it’s about 7/16″ ID x 13/16″ OD x 1/8″ thick. Glacier Bay 676 351 shower head washer should fit. I found 7/16″ ID x 3/4″ OD x 1/8″ thick washers on eBay.
