Is the front cover something that can't be re-used? Just curious. Thanks

Yes.

While it's out, there's some prep work and measurements to take.

it can be reused as long as it is not worn out from abuse of contaminated oil being pumped thru it which can wear out the gears and scratch up the pocket.  I mentioned it because I have doubts about the rebuild job that may, or may not, have been done to your engine

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.
