Well, removed all the thick layers of primer from the the vehicle, you can now see the extensive damage caused by little nitromorse and a jealous ex girlfriend (i got the car in this condition)!

Sumps are the same on every Vauxhall from that era. It's probably a good idea to change the sump gaskets now anyway as these engines always leak oil from here!

I got a sump from the scrapyard at Indigo Business Park for 10 quid, they've got loads of Calibras in there with that engine.
