The H20 pump didn't seize, The cam bolt walked out and thru the timing cover into the pump impellor. So a little welding to the timing cover is in order as well as getting the coolant moisture out of the engine.
Then back on schedule tuning.

What do you think caused that, and what are your plans to prevent reoccurrance?

Not using Loctite caused it ....using it will cure it. I ALWAYS Loctite mine.

Ditto on the Loctite, I use it wherever there is a bolt going into a rotating/moving item - better safe than sorry!!!

Note that items doused with RED Loctite MUST be heated thoroughly, like with a propane or MAP gas torch, to come loose.

The RED is called "stud & bearing mount". Anybody ever use it on the back of a bearing shell? I suppose you would have to use it quite sparingly so as not to have any squish out & get on the journal or into the oiling groove.

Yep didn't Locktite it.
Have to also check the length to make sure it didn't bottom.
I did tighten it to TSM torque spec.
