Yes I have pulled the flywheel and the bell housing cover. I do not see any freeze plugs or leaks.

There is an oil film behind the flywheel but I did not see any rust stains or rusty cracks. This is my first diesel engine so I am unfamiliar with the technology. I am told that the L1501 is the same as the L185 except for the PTO drive, but who knows.
