Just go over every inch of the motor, timing cover, water pump, all brackets, but don't stress as it doesn't look like an internal bolt lol.

Yer thats what i was thinking it seems to greasy/dirty to be a internal bolt

Anyone know any good tricks to stop the heater hose pipe on the back of the water pump from leaking im thinking about ripping it off and sliding some rubber hose over and sliding it back on with some gasket glue and hose clamping the rubber hose over the pipe and water pump that will seal it LOL

Make sure the pipe is inserted into the housing all the way. With a new seal (a must) they can be hard to get in nicely. If you remove the bolt holding the pipe under the exhasut manifold, and coat the seal in vasseline it should slide in nicely. Make sure its all the way in, and tighten the bolt under the exhaust manifold.

Three o rings?
The only things i can think of are the four washers for the rocker cover, but theyre obvious. There is an o ring in the back of the water pump for the heater hose, and one in the lower thermostat housing for the other heater hose. Also, a large ring for sealing the thermostat.
