Working on repair job '01-215' for those FSM followers. I went to replace the front main today and it appears the PO had someone remove the crankcase cover and glop it full of RTV along with the old West Germany stamped front main.

In any event, I am not having any luck finding that proper sealant at the usual distributors. Can anyone shed some light if this has been superseded by something and if so, what?

I have Reinzosil here, but am not positive that will work in this spot. Last I want to do is tear the front end off again to reseal.

Thanks
