Spica is off, more questions

[Tony Martie <tony@domain.elided>]

It took quite some time today but my Spica pump is out of the car.  The 
pump was working fine but leaking oil.  Now I'm not so sure about it's 
condition.  The oil that ran out of it was very grey and thin, kind of 
milky.  What is the probable cause and consequence of this?

The mounting gasket is almost paper thin.  Do I need to cut a new one 
of these or are they available anywhere?  I ask because the only cut it 
your self gasket material I have seen is quite a bit thicker and I am 
concerned that thicker material might keep that little o-ring from 
sealing effectively.

Thanks again, you guys are the best.  Without this group I would surely 
be shelling out a lot of money to mechanics.
