My engine passed mid time a year ago and it was time to change leaking valve covers gaskets. When I removed the covers I noticed a rather thick layer of a reddish colored sludge. What caused that? Disintegrated cork? Rust from not very often used engine guts? Bob please take a look.
Also noticed flaking Lycoming gray on intake flanges.
Dumped couple of intake hoses but couldn't find right spring clamps for those. Reused old hose clamps. If anybody has right size spring clamps handy please post below.
My maintenance shop. Who got bigger?
First 20 hours on red gaskets they look good and don't leak.
