Oil pump O-ring.

Ever wonder why someone would replace the pulley (harmonic balancer) side crank seal but not replace the $3 oil pump O-ring to avoid a possible bad oil leak later ?
It might be the mechanic followed WIS. I just did both of those an '06 SC. I didn't remember the torque for retightening the crank bolt, so I looked it up in WIS. To my surprise, WIS says to replace the front crank seal in the car by pulling it out with a screw driver and seating the new one with a "special tool". No mention of replacing the oil pump O-ring !
The O-ring I replaced must not have been original, because although hardened, it came off the oil pump front plate without breaking apart.
