I have changed the o-ring a couple of times with no results. It is seeping from between the pump housing and the block.
Front camshaft seal gets fuky after 400,000miles. First symptom is oil leak. Bearing goes next. If it goes out while youre driving, engine is toast. I recommend replacing seals,bearing,and oilpump. Get a cool sleeve from toyota. Everything else can be regular autoparts store reman. Good luck and godspeed.??
I've had the same problem with my 22r.
I just put silicone gasket ( the stuff you get in the tube for automotive) on top of the o-ring.
It added an extra seal plus also hold the o-ring in place when putting the oil pump back on.
Never had a problem with the oil pump after that.
