I have just stripped my oil pump to see if it is worth reusing in my rebuild. I have some scoring on the interface of the pick up housing, see pictures. This only measures .0015” with a straight edge and feeler gauge. I have measured the clearance between the gear teeth and the bores with a feeler gauge and it is between .004 and .005”. Looking at Haynes manual, there are no figures for clearances. Does anyone know what the clearance should be?
