hi peeps i've just recently had my head gasket done and ive noticed the sump gasket seems to be leaking. is this just a coincidence or is extra pressure from the head doing the nasty

Get a new gasket and some of the black silicon sealer from vauxhall. That'll sort it. Should only take about 20 mins.

sump gaskets usally start leaking within a few hundred miles unless you're ultra carefull when fitting them.
