Does replacing the front crank seal require removing the timing cover and thus another gasket I'd need to purchase? I need to change the water pump and passenger CV so I figured I'd replaced the front seal while I was in there. I don't think it leaking, but between the CV throwing grease, the water pump leaking, and my transmission lower cooler line leaking it's a freaking mess down there so for $12 I'd rather have peace of mind that all the leaks where fixed at once.
Thanks.
