1) Intermediate Shaft Cover to Case: ThreeBond 1211 (now 1215)
2) Oil Breather Cover to Case: ThreeBond 1211 (now 1215)
3) Cam Chain Housings to Case: Threebond 1104 (now 1184)
4) Cam Chain Housings to Cam Towers: Threebond 1104 (now 1184)
5) Cam Chain Housing Cover to Cam Chain Housing: Threebond 1104 (now 1184)

Again, thanks for your help and good humor!!!

the only one I am wondering about myself is the cam chain housing cover.

When I took my car apart the previous person only put sealant between the gasket and the housing , but nothing between the cover and the gasket.

There were absolutely no leaks and I was able to pop the cover off just from undoing the nuts with no issues. It worked fantastic

I m not sure but I think this may have been intentional as this is to me a " service cover" to do cam timing, check/ change tensioners. I think it would be miserable to try and do any of that with the engine in the car if this cover were " glued" on and trying to clean the surface of the housing afterwards while in the car .

Just a thought.
