Sump Gasket Set
Does anyone know where i can get a sump gasket set for a Jag engine?
I want to inspect my motor before i rebuild the chassis after painting but can only find a head gasket set.
ETA - 3.6 AJ6

How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

Could you not make you own from gasket paper? Always an option. Otherwise instant gasket (like hylomar blue) though some people don't like it
incase it blocks passageways....

Hmmm, didnt realise you could do that. Im abit reluctant to use instant gasket because as you say, it could block oil passageways.
I dont understand why i can find loads of places that sell rocker and head gasket sets but no sump gaskets.

Making you own is easy for small area's not so good for something as bit as you have. Small Ball pein hammer and paper.
Silicon is no good as it reacts to oil and petrol, Halfords do a nice sump sealant for around £7 in a squirty tube, just run a small bead and you will
be fine.
Lots of dealers use this stuff now, that why you rarely see oil leaks these days.
