I decided to go in from the top first which entails pulling the whole EFI intake assembly.

When I pulled the distributor it looked normal, but when I looked up into the end it wasn't clear. A couple of taps and the top of the oil pump drive shaft slid out.

I'm dropping the pan now to check the pump and see if it seized, or if there is any indication of why the shaft sheared. Normally if the pump seizes the shear pin on the dizzy drive gear goes.... Hoping that everything's OK, and a new shaft, new pump and some gaskets is all that's required.Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
Sorry for your loss of friend Mike McGee, Shine. Great trans men are few and far between, it seems. Sadly, Mike Frade was only 66 and had been talking about retirement for ten years that I know...
