Carefully clean sealing surfaces on the cover and pump housing. Insert new moulded seal on pump housing -arrow- , then carefully insert the oil pump cover together with the driving pin (external hexagon) into the internal hexagon of the intermediate shaft. See Fig 1. If necessary, turn the oil pump gear wheel by hand until the driving pin fits in the intermediate shaft and the oil pump cover can easily be pushed on.
