When did you notice some signs of leakage? Right away, a short while after rebuild or???
Let us know please.

Definitely no receipt for #8. It has leaked since rebuild, it's just taken me this long to realise what's wrong and how wrong it is. The rebuilder was an OPC. Understandlibly they're not jumping to fix it considering it's been four years since the rebuild. I've shown time stamped pics of the tail soon after the rebuild. I'm hoping that the bearing will clearly show what's wrong when I split the case. If it's obvious then I'll be giving them a visit to see what can be done.
