At least the sleeves are replaceable...

I just did this last weekend. I ordered the front re-seal kit with the cam and balance shaft sleeves. I had no idea when/if they were changed before. It has ~125K miles on it (broken odo worm pinion gear). The b/s sleeves were fairly worn but the crank sleeve was toast. I should have ordered the crank sleeve at the same time. I haven't taken the cam tower apart yet, but I have a new sleeve ready already.
NOTE: The crank seal that came out was 38 x 52 x 7mm. The new seal is 38 x 52.2 x 7mm. There must've been a TSB about the change that I missed...Anybody know anything about it?
