Hi Ruairidh,
I had three different lip seals to hand, with which to choose from, two from cherished suppliers (one nitrile metric, the other is a viton possibly imperial) and one from another company, in this application I chose the viton metric.
I have another car that leaks (straight 30 oil), so will be removing the engine and trying to replicate the process using one of the remaining seals.
Very true with regards the oil, my choice is only dependent on that it is a known crankcase to me (clean) so feel ok to use 20/50 in this instance, comma as switched from halfords own brand.
Kind regards,
B
