I got the water pump off of my '90 Corolla (yes, I'm one of the recent posts) using a procedure from the Autozone website. I'll have to say that their procedures, besides being somewhat vague, aren't all that good (at least this one wasn't). Now that I've gotten the pump off, I can see that I need a new timing belt as this one has quite a few cracks in it. I've also noticed that I have a small oil leak from the front main seal. I've looked around for a front seal but can't seem to find one. Is the front seal incorporated into the oil pump? Kind of looks that way from some of the diagrams that I've looked at. If I have to replace the oil pump, what kind of puller will I need to remove the crankshaft timing gear? Will I be able to remove the oil pan without pulling the motor? Is there an additive that I can add to the oil to stop this small leak? I don't want to get oil all over the new timing belt.
Thanks again for any/all suggestions/advice.

Thank you for your response. I have looked into it a little further and found that the oil seal in the front of the oil pump is replaceable..........just pull the crankshaft pulley that runs the belts and then pull the crankshaft timing gear pulley to gain access to the front seal. It's a piece of cake, except for removing the timing cover, which requires a little extra effort in having to lift/jack the engine up on the passenger side of the vehicle. Thanks again.
