You could tell it wasn't a seal/gasket, as you could see the excess where it oozed out.

Just curious.

Thanks

Post a photo. The original orange seal was injected into the plate so it may seem to be RTV but isn't. Not sure if has been changed but I doubt it.

I think that's why rtv shouldn't be used as someone stated above it will get into the oil might clog something.

There was a recent "low oil pressure" thread where the OP eventually found a glop of rtv at the rear of the lower oil galley.
