Tower reseal

Extreme glare!
Painted the front seal/gear housing, after some very careful masking. I only wanted the paint the outside.
A new seal and shaft sleeve have been installed in the front side, and the large o-ring and small brown seal have been placed in the back.
The shaft takes a thin Mylar seal. This stops oil from seeping between the shaft and the sleeve. The back end of the sleeve is flat and lipped, so it is clamped up against the step in the cam shaft, by the bolt and cam gear.
