Good morning, as I recall, it's been 4years since I last buttoned up the newly rebuilt engine, I sealed the pan/timing cover just as you described. I am reasonably sure I installed the oil galley plug. I did, however, drill a 0.060 hole in the plug to ensure adequate oil to the cam/crank gears. The oil pressure at 2000 RPM was 50 PSI

PS: it is morning in Yuma AZ.
