Bill: it needs something. The books call for a fiber washer behind the
timing plate cover (Moss 324-680, TRF WF508) but I have been equally
successful with a felt washer in front - something you may be able to do
without too much difficulty.

Subject: [TR] Timing cover leak
Hello List,
Just set the TR3 motor in and fired up for the first time, there is a small
oil leak at that post that goes through the center of the timing cover,
behind the pulley. I just had a nut and washer on it, should I have gone
with an o-ring or fiber washer? 20-20 hindsight, should have put something
behind it.
Many thanks,
Bill
