The fuel pump started leaking last year (gasket failure). When I took the assembly off there was a gasket but no "oil engine baffle" in that location. The engine was rebuilt in 1972 and has been driven regularly since. Can someone supply info on the baffle? This is the first problem in nearly 50 years this car was put back on the road. There's never been an oil leak at the flange even though it has been cracked and is a bit cupped due to the over torquing. It is a '33 engine.
