My 427 C/O is leaking
oil down the front of the plate between the block and the bellhousing.
I did change the
oil seals twice and still leaking. The strange thing is that it leaks when the engine is off. Even after standing for 10 days it still leaks. This makes me think that it not the rear main seal , but the rear camshaft bearing cover. Where else would enough
oil accumulate to keep dripping for days after the engine has been shut off ?
Or is it capilarity that pulls the oil out between the rear main cap and the block ?
How do I know it is not the rear campshaft bearing cover ? The flywheel and the plate inside is dry. No oil there.
And if it is the main seal, any tips on how to get that leak fixed for good ?
Any help and suggestions wellcome !!!!
