Seal is probably fine, it is the cover itself that warps.

Yes & Suzuki.
It seems sometimes however the problem is the cover itself has warped and a new O-ring will do nothing, in which case you either need to swap the entire thing for a pointy cover or replace the cover. Worth mentioning you should also be careful how you tighten it, should always tighten opposite bolts and a bit at a time. Working in a star kind of pattern like this. http://www.websupergoo.com/helppdf7n...r_draw.pdf.gif Druid |

Just use some gasket maker ontop and around the oring.

Re: clutch cover seal (oil leak)
And not over torque them and snap a bolt off like i did. Just a bit tighter, just a bit more, snap - ****!

Overtightening can cause leak in first place

Re: clutch cover seal (oil leak)
yep 10nm if memory serves for those bolts - it's one of those that you remember after doing it
