RE: 390 rear oil seal problem & bent push rod

On the bent pushrod situation, do you know if the engine was assembled with the crank in the correct position? The crankshaft pully has an "X" position that must be aligned with the pointer before torqueing the rocker shaft bolts. This is a position that has no load on the valve springs. If the springs are loaded while torqueing, you might get a false torque and possible rocker shaft breakage - especially the end lifters.
This thread, so far...
