I am leaking oil around the timing chain cover, lower left front, I am going to replace the gasket. I have to split the front end of the tractor. While I have it apart and the cover removed is there any "Preventative maintenance" I should look at doing while the tractor is torn down? It is a 1978 diesel with 1200 hours. I appreciate the advise of those who have been there before me. Thanks!!

the front axle pivot bushings(just in case), the bolster for cracks, and replace the front crank seal. Timing gears should be good, depends on how well it has been taken care of. Water pump not leaking, rubber hoses good? 1200 hours? it's hardly broken in ;-)
