Cam plate question?

toolmanmike said
If I had to do it over I wouldn't use a tensioner with a double roller. (not necessary with a good timing set) It was recommended to drill a 1/64" hole in the oil galley plug. I'm sure it's a oily mess under that timing cover but the deflector and front seal are doing their job.
No leaks.

This^^^^^^^is exactly what the OP needs to do, and eliminate the goofy tab.

He doesn’t need the tensioner, but a small hole in the plate or gallery plug if he is using it and the plate is how you get oil to the timing set.

All the rest of that crap is just that. Crap.
