Oil
ok well i had a problem with my old valve covers on my new 350, it has 61 miles on the new engine and they leaked, i replaved them, put on the gasket and the sealer, tightened them down and let them sit for 2 days
well i changed my oil yesterday and while i had it in the air i started to pour in the new oil and it was just pouring out the back of the engine, the valve covers arent leaking now, but somewhere else on the engine is pouring out oil, i know its not the dipstick hole, and i dont think its the oil pan because its dosent hav oil on it, but its dripping down onto the crossmember and then onto the ground
so does anyone know what i should do to try to fix this or waht things i chould goa nd check out. thanks

are you sure the back of the intake is not leaking? I bet this was the problem all along. also, check the oil sending unit near the driver's side of the back of the intake.

Hey, could you shrink your sig pic just a tad, so it doesn't run over the page, scrolling back and forth to read is a pain, thanks man.
