rear main seal

hey guys i have an oil leak problem from the rear main seal of my 95 3.4 camaro. the rear main seal was replaced in may and it now leaks more oil than before. my dad said that its probably the crankshaft thats out of round at the rear of the engine. what could it be. any ideas will be good thanks.

rear main leak

Are you 100% sure it's the rear main? It could be your lower intake leaking at the back, get under the car and feel around up above the starter area and see if ther is any oil there, I had a 95 with the 3.4L and I thougt my rear main was leaking too, but it turned out to be the intake

Yeah, thats the way mine was, I took the cover off off of the tourqe converter and would have sworn it was the rear main seal but it wasn't anyway I would do some more checking, I hope this helps you out some,
