I have 3 leaks, one at the back where the tail shaft goes in, one from the drain plug and one from the speedo cable.

Best ways to plug these would be??

replace rear oil seal on the gearbox...

for the drain and speedo cable try using locktite (cant remember which one, the one that comes in the syringe)

Timing chain tensioner also leaks, it seems like it is coming out of the centre hole

It is an 18RGEU head.

Seems all timing chain tensioners leak. My 18RG did, my 3TG does.

There is some O-rings in there that need replacing.

Are these all standard rubbers that i can get from sprints or somewhere? With the locktite, does that make it a pain in the arse to undo next time?

I can wind out the timing chain tensioner all the way and it will just come out won't it, then i just screw it back in to reinstall- nothing tricking? I don't want to have something drop off the end and fall down the front of the timing chain cover!
