What's all that oil doing around that bearing cap? Have you been changing it?

Looks like you are getting some metal build up in the oil. Time to change it.

Actually, it runs amazingly well for three cylinders. I bought it with the thrown rod since the rest of the car is so nice. It's a shame I didn't get to see the show when the cap flew off......

I don't see anything wrong with that oil pan! Of course the contents seem to be in the wrong locations. That was the problem, there were just too many parts in there.
