could unplugging the OMP have caused it to start leaking?
I started premixing a couple of months ago and I simply just unplugged the OMP. Now the OMP is leaking at its paper gasket. This just started a couple of days ago. Could unplugging it be related to it leaking? The OMP is still a mystery to me as to how it behaves when unplugged.

the oil line return is directly below the omp. Any chance its coming from there?
The omp has a rubber ring gasket that seals it to the block. The oil return line has a paper/flat gasket that it uses to seal itself.

I found out the problem. The reason it started leaking in the first place was because the turbo decided to melt the OMP oil lines. It still passes oil through a tiny bit it seems. Not knowing this I put another pump on without the lines on it at all, thus the leak was still there.
So tomorrow I will be making a block off plate (durrrrr me).
