    Rear main cap question

    see images attached. Is it normal to have this much gap between engine block and rear main cap outer stepped edge? The cap also seems to not sit perfectly flush with the block along the front and rear of cap. Is there a certain way to sit the cap in place before torquing to avoid this?
