I had to adjust a tail pipe tonight because it was rubbing a tire, and noticed oil everywhere. From the bottom of the bellhousing clear back to the rear transmission mount.
I just put a new clutch, TOB, etc. including a new rear main seal. I was sure the seal went in straight and seated all the way and seems to be fine. At first I thought maybe that's where the oil was coming from, but the clutch isn't slipping. Also, I got under the car and took the two bottom bolts out of the bellhousing so I could pull it back and look up in and it appears to be dry. My oil cooler was leaking at one point, but it doesn't appear to be coming from there. This oil is blowing back onto the h pipe on each side and to the rear transmission brace.
Finally, there is oil on each side of the engine on the bottom, kind of like the valve covers and/or intake are leaking, however, it looks old and there doesn't seem to be a lot of fresh stuff there, especially enough to be showing up like this.
I wiped everything off as best I could and took the car out and honestly ran it pretty hard for about 20 minutes. I checked it when I got back and I don't see anything new. Any ideas?
Any help is appreciated.
