Dose anybody know if there is a rubber style real main seal available to replace the rope style seal used on 229 V6’s.

And if there is, could you please suggest a good place to get it from. (Somewhere online would be nice).

Thanks,

Paul.

Edit: I haven't had the bottom off of the engine yet, but someone just told me that the 229's only ever had a rubber seal. Anybody know if this is true?
