[Mgs] MGB Front Engine Side Cover Gasket

[daybell7 at aol.com]

I am replacing the front side cover gasket on a 18V engine in my 1972 MGB.  The cork gasket (as well as a rubber one) I ordered is 1/8 inch thick.  The gasket I scrapped from the cover was paper thin.  The new gasket and cover sticks way out from the motor.


Is this right? I can’t imagine it won’t leak since the cork gasket is viewable and I would think become saturated with oil.


Thanks,
