Took a video last night, what do you see?

[James]

I don't like what I saw... Sorry if it's not really clear.

Looks quite beat up? Now in a normal ware and tear way.. And looks like theres a gap?

"I see dead people"

lol.

Actually, hard to tell what I'm looking at in the video, but looks like your pulley is sort of banged up (the grooves)? And perhaps your crush washer needs replacing (I see some oil residue on the screw head, which could be coming from the oil line above it?).

I know it's choppy, iPhone wouldnt focus I saw the pully and was less worried about that, more worried about the scrapes and whatnot on the bottom of the motor? An it almost looks like something was cut to make the oil pan fit?

First of all, phones are not cameras.

From what i can see, everything looks pretty normal, other than the oil pan bolt which is not a mitsu piece.

According to the definition, my phone is indeed a camera.

I have a oem oilpan bolt so I'll swap that in.

looks like the oil pan gasket broke in half and started to bulge out the side. the wear looks normal unless you had it off before and i didn't look like that before, its just years of road debris coming up and hitting the underside. i'd drain the oil, pull the pan, make sure all mating surface are flat, sand them if need be a bit, clean it all up REALLY good, RTV the oil pan(don't buy a gasket) and make sure you reinstall the two shorter bolt under the timing belt and torque them all to the proper lbs. It doesn't look all that serious or something to concern yourself with, just something you need to take care of quickly.
