The oil pump housing has the alternator pivot bolt going through it. If changing belts or otherwise screwing with this alternator belt do not over torque as it will squeeze the gasket and make it leak eventually. Ask me how I know this.. Pain in the butt on a 245 to replace this gasket. Poor design for alternator mounting IMO.
