    That sounds scary

    One end bolts to the oil pump on one end with a little 4mm bolt and on the other end it bolts to one of the main cap bolts only after the windage tray has been mounted.

    Make sure you use a new "O" ring from GM. Don't reuse an old one.

    Oh yeah, without the o-ring you'd be sucking air and burn the engine up, plain and simple. Good catch, Jeff.
