The pan is dry and v/c are dry they did not drip down the heads and onto the x member . Then it should be from the back of the engine like you were prob dreading.

groovy

Agree with wfoot. An old crank and old bearings can have a lot of crank movement.
If this is rebuild then just try and set it in a different spot so the groove does not interfere.
Again dont block the oil passage.

Wonder if the seafoam dissolved the new silicone you used? Brake clean it all off and then look to see where the leaks come from. You have to have a good light. Is it from down low like at the oil pan, are the valve covers wet or dry. You can undo the pitch rod and engine mount nuts to raise the eng...

oil squirter

Hmmm I would probably use a magnetic oil pan drain plug till you recover the squirter. Short of tearing the engine in half the only thing you can do is make sure the oil pump can deliver all it can. If it hasnt been done to your knowledge remove the pump and reseal it. This "only" involves...

Change the plugs and wires or use known good ones. Check the cam and crank sensors plugged in and mounted. May need to check timing belt marks aligned. Add sea foam to the engine oil and run it for 20-30 mins. Change oil. That should clean it internally and free up the lifters.

I found mine in the oil pan when I rebuilt it. It might have contributed to the engine feeling old and tired. Im sure it would lower oil pressure a lot. If you are going to raise boost go in and fix it. If you dont want to tear it down make sure your oil pump is sealed up or get a fresh oil pump.

tmic pipe

Using the 06 tmic with a 02-05 wrx silicone hose I had to lengthen silicone "Y" hose going to the vf39 about and inch. I think with this combo Frantic 4 also installed the same with a For XT silicone kit fit a lot easier between the intercooler inlets.
