Red arrows show its in a two part body and yellow is the join where i have diesel pissing out. Nice rainbows in the rain today :D Anyway should there be a seal or are the parts torque'd down? I have a new one here to go in and the two half are loose so went in for a look, No seal so a tad confused if i need a seal kid of some sorts.

Anything still running with a DW8 will have high mileage and be old. Best bet is to get them reconditioned, cheap way will be out of a breaker, thousands of those things in breakers.
