So the actual fitting is where my oil leak is coming from now. You can see it right in the middle their.. it wiggles back and forth so it's super loose. I just don't have a tool to tighten it down with... I need to find an open ended wrench that's like 3 inches long probably a 15-17MM
Also found a bolt sticking out from my timing cover buy about an inch.... Oh how my car hates the things that hold it together... I have a pic of it, but for some reason it didn't load.

Tyler, funny thing is that same bolt that was loose and I know I tightened all of them down. I may put some lock tite on those threads to ensure it doesnt happen again.
My BS of the day:
Had to order a new cam drive crank gear due to damage when I was taking it off. The Key scored some of the crank after it broke so it was very hard to get off. The part is coming in Tuesday thanks to my friend at a Kia dealership. Stupid chevy said itll take 5-7 business days.
On another note I think my dad will have the new crank key done by the time I get the new gear. He talked to some machinists at his work and they suggested SV7 material for the key. He is going to get some and make it out of that. I guess its a really really strong metal of some sort. Cant find anything on it though. Cant wait to get that part!
