Thanks for the help! Art to the rescue again :D

This http://cleanflametrap.com/RearMainSeal_files/flywheel%20spacer.jpg Is worth a thousand words. I can see what the seal is and how it will be to get on and off.

I'll probably replace it for the cheap insurance factor, and if it's not too long to get in on and off. I have impact (YEA!) tools I can use on the flywheel bolts, and I'll make sure to mark the flywheel thoroughly.

Now that I think about it, this is the perfect time to replace most of the seals. I have a ton of tools at my disposal and a safe place to leave the car, so I'll probably try to get everything but the timing belt done before the engine goes in the car, then check its compression before I bolt on anything more than the starter.

Thanks guys
