I am leaking oil from an unknown source... the leak is coming from the top of the engine in the back on the passenger side and rolling down the bell housing and dripping on my exhaust and the ground the motor is a 305 any places to look at would be helpful.....I have checked the rear main seal, and the valve covers...not sure where to look next any suggestions would be helpful or if you need additional information

 

check around the distributer and the rear of the intake manifold.

 

Check the oil pressure sending unit. Drivers side next to the distributor. The car will probably need to be running for you to see it leaking.

 

LT1 shown but same location

 

put some oil leak detector in your oil and put dem glasses on, probably the easiest way to find the source of the leak and fast.

 

Can't see that location behind dist so no benefit

 

i say it would work, not hard to see a glowing spot, ust use a mechanics mirror and check it out, imo

 

If you can get a mirror in there you will see the leak source anyway?

 

ill be sure to check the back of the intake i capped off the oil pressure sending unit after the line snapped

 

yes, because all you need to do is darken the place or wait till night and put on the glasses that come with the leak detecting fluid and it should light off, not hard to find man

 

Did you find the leak?
