Default Re: Is this a normal wear pattern on oil pump idler cover plate and block mating surf

While you have it apart, replace the idler gear bushing and hone it to fit. Looks like it may be suffering from a sloppy idler bushing. When the idler bushing becomes worn, the engine will sound like it has a rod knock. Ask me how I know.
