anyone

 

The only advise I think you will get is clean it up good and watch to see where it originates from. I think you can also get some dye that glows under black light.

I have a leak in that area too. I always have a drop of oil on the AIR tube running under the timing cover. I thought it was the crank sensor cause that was wet too - but I have replaced the O ring and sealed it up with gasket material to no avail. Same friggin' drop of oil.

Currently - my car is wearing a diaper until I have time to fix it. I wrapped an oil absorbant rag around the AIR pipe and zip tied it in place. It will catch the 2 drips per trip and save my driveway some mess.

 

I have the same problem. When I went to a 383 with D1 FI blower. As rings wear, some blowby will occur and positive pressure in the crankcase can cause a leak on the front oil pan seal and rear main seal. Check the pvc valve/ tube is functioning and not blocked or split respectively. (or replace pvc). I'm looking @ intall of a belt driven vac system for me. I have blown out the front oil pan seal. Gasket looks to be split. I have also used Lucas oil stabilizer. It helps with leaking seals. Not a popular option, but, I like the stuff. Hope this helps. B.
