good eye. It sure does look that way

Meaning the cut out shouldn’t be that low between the bolts? When I look down in the cut out I don’t see the seal impinging the cut out. Seems like it’s on a solid surface. Not sure if if more meat there would add better clamping. Maybe it could? I should elaborate on the leak. I found a water trail the inside of the cut out. On the shifter side. This is on the port motor.

they are capped.

Here’s a shot from the inside...don’t think the lower cut out can be raised much if any because of the block off plate. Seems fine to me. Maybe cam angle in the original picture.
