New used motor finally complete...but not

we finally finished pulling the built motor and put in a stock motor. Started the car up and its like totally different. car sounds so tame and normal even for being turbocharged. Anyways, i thought i was done and could enjoy the car now finally but there is a fat oil leak on the timing cover side. i hope it doesnt turn out to be inner timing cover leak...fixing that REALLY SUCKS...ugh..it never ends
