Engine Mechanical problem
1994 Volvo 940 4 cyl Automatic 98,000 miles

I just had my timing belt and water pump replaced, plus transmission service completed. It only used to leak coolant/water. Now, it leaks motor oil. I went back to the mechanic and he said it needs a new distributor O-ring to fix the leak. Why would this suddenly happen after mechanical work? Are there any special instructions for replacing an O-ring besides following a vehicle manual?
