Since you will have the engine out it would be a good idea to remove the sump and reseal it with the good RTV. Probably also be a good idea to replace the rear main seal plate. It will save a lot of hassle later, if it can be done without the engine in place. @EYY knows the name of the good sealant to use on the sump.
Yeah was planning on it mate, What’s the name of the good sealant to use?

Also took heads to be checked for warpage, vaccume sealing, and cracks and it came up all good just needed a tiny bit shaved off

I can't remember the name of it. @EYY knows. There would be a few blokes on here, who should know the name of the gear.

Yeah whoops still don't get notifications for tags.

Threebond super sealer is THE ****. Otherwise failing that permatex ultra blue is the other go-to.
