All the fixing holes for the sump are blind.
After consideration I have fitted oblong washers.
The sump flange and crankcase joint are perfectly clean.
Also dressed the flange to get as flat face as possible.
Using A7 workshop paper casket with cement.
PS one way oil could seep along the studs is if the inner joint face fails
providing a route to the stud thread .
Many thanks for all the replies
