Watch out for the following mistakes:
Engine rotation : Same as the wheels
Seal the rubber plug with the same stuff you use for the headcover. And further:
Dry the blind tapped holes with a pipecleaner to prevent an hydraulic lock.
Stick to the torque values ( torque in 2 or 3 stages)
Use NEW gaskets and O-rings.

If you have compressed air, or just slowly run a bolt in & dry off the squeezed out oil, whatever, But I didnt see this recommended anywhere, just got lucky & saw it needed done before it went back together. If ya dont do this, the BEST that will happen is you will run oil over the liquid gasket, & I am not in favor of that.
