Can't help there you but surely someone here will.

Just wanted to mention checking the condition of the aluminum housing for pitting. Especially at the thin areas around the ports before setting out.

I have been through one (SB) timing cover so far from that situation, maybe check it too.

Fit a new one. You can't see it behind the pulley.

As Dave said, but there are places that will replace the seal and bearing,(rebuild) your numbers matching water pump, the housing shouldn't need any care unless it suffered from cavitation. www.fdrbp.com
