With the gear off you can see the tube which supplies oil to the timing gears. Remove the small bolt which holds it in place. Keep the two together for future use.

This screw is actually attached from inside the oil pan. Don't try to pull the plate until it is out or you may bend the plate, causing an oil leak upon reassembly.

Inside the pan area it is easy to see the screw is part of the front seal assembly. Unscrew all of the mounting screws and pull off the front plate and seal assembly.
