It took a little longer to remove spark plugs and soak up oil in plug wells due to oil cap seal leak. Aisin water pump was weeping from expansion plug (mileage unknown)
The oil leaks seem to be purely from the oil cap seal.
Transgo kit and new transmission fluid will be next weekend

Valve body was refurbished with a Transgo kit last month.
Replaced voltage regulator in the alternator. Idle is now 14.28V with no load; previously it was 13.1V
Replaced the power steering reservoir hose with a new one as it had been seeping.

295, 600kms I made a poor buying decision with a regualtor a couple of months ago as it failed shortly afterwards. Replaced voltage regulator again today in alternator as battery voltage with engine running was only 12.7V.
After replacement of the regulator it's now a healthy 14.5V with no accessories.

301,156kms
Noticed that the serpentine belt was shredding slightly and located a power steering fluid leak at the reservoir clamp. Tracked the problem to an inferior clamp which had bitten in to the hose.
Cut 10mm off the hose and replaced the clamp while also using new PS fluid 1 litre
Cost $10 for fluid and $3.25 for clamp
