Status: offline 		Just read through this, wow...lol. I dont, and never have sealed an engine, all my engine spray a mist from behind the flywheel, nothing crazy just the norm. they all run great, albiet the axial 32-rr1 but that a whole other story, everything tib said makes sense. also, the front bearing has nothing to do with sealing the engine.

If you are not having problems then you do not need to change anything.
