Is it 100% necessary to remove the oil pan when removing the oil pump, or could those 5 or so bolts be taken out and then just slip out the pump and re-seal it upon re-installing?
The one annoying thing about this fix (beside removal and install of timing belt) is taking off the oil pan, and cutting that out of the picture would cut down the fix time so...yay...or nay --------------------  1995 GT::::Diffusing the Situation エキサイティングカーレーシングチーム! march 2010 COTM : 6GC feature 2014 : january 2015-2016-2018 COTM |

Oil pump is quite easy, oil pump housing is not
 I wouldn't use FIPG on the perimeter seal. I would use vaseline to hold it in place instead, if you're using an OEM seal. They're designed to go on "dry" (with no other adhesives/gasket makers etc). It could send a piece of FIPG right into your oil stream and clog up something, I simply wouldn't even consider risking it. Use 100% white petrolatum-based pretroleum jelly/Vaseline brand. It is soluble in oil so if it goes into your oil stream it won't do anything harmful at all. In fact, it's what I used to prime my oil pump rotor since it's so thick and sticky. -------------------- 1993 Celica GT Coupe - sold
