How difficult is it to change the gasket/seal around the top of the sump?

Also I have a a leak on the crank seal and rocker cover! I know I might as well change the timing belt while doing the crank seal, but is the rocker cover difficult?

I hate changing sump seal, scraping it all off takes forever

Is it hard to get too? Does the engine need dropping out because there is a big cross beam in the way! Lol!

Yep, or the cross beam removing, but the steering rack is attached to the beam so that needs removing as well

Sounds like too big a job tbh. The bills to fix it are greater then the car is worth.

On the plus side, the rocker cover's easy!
