 Wow, I didn't know that.  I had thought about filling the whole cavity
 around the PP, but figured that was too silly to mention.  So that should
 take care of the water leaks I guess.  
 
 Did I also read that the factory PP housing doesn't use one of the through
 bolts?  I'm guessing the port gets in the way if it's big enough.

Tap the unused bolt hole in the rear iron for a pipe plug lest the floor 
under the engine get wet when you try to fill it.
