We elected to swap the hard line for a braided crossover -6 hose for better flow, and a blacker look.
A quick flip to replace a leaky pan gasket and to have a look-see at the bottom end… what’s that on the pickup screen?
Someone went a little strong with the silicone on assembly, and remnants were stuck to the oil pump pickup screen.
We made sure to scrape all the excess goo from the pan rails, and used far less on reassembly.
