Re: 1989 Camry. oil leak around timing belt cover.

I'm not familiar with your engine, but it seems to me that if you pull the oil pan to replace the oil pump gasket on an engine with 249,000 miles, your better off just replacing the pump. They do wear out. You may be able to measure the clearances with the pump out and see if it is within specs.

As for engine support, I just stacked some wood on each fender and ran a steel beam across the top. Jack up the engine, hook on chain, lower jack. Not sure you need to on this car though.
