Thanks guys!. Ill pay some extra attention to these bolts.
I went ahead and ordered an OEM crank seal from Mitsubishi.
The seal we swapped on there the last time is a Taiwan seal from my local Autozone that I bought in the interest of time.
Never had so much trouble with sealing an engine that wasn't leaking to begin with.... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/angry.gif" alt="" />
