All seals and gaskets, as with any UK built car.
If you rebuild the engine yourself, taking great care with assembly and 
using the tightest tolerances possible (not factory spec tolerances), 
proper gasket material etc. you may have a chance that it will come down 
to one or two drops after each trip. That is as far as you can get.
