Thanks for the help and input guys. Got injectors finished up. Cranked her up and saw oil leaking from turbo exhaust side. Now we’re waiting for a new one from atl.
Do you guys know what kind of sealant is used on this cover. Internally? Here.

Installing the cover to the upper gear housing?... its a gasket.

At the the tiny spot where the gasket comes together and overlaps, I use RTV red.
