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.

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
