I have a 91 3.1 L firebird with this oil leak that seem to be dripping from the back of the motor somewhere. I'm kinda clueless as to where exactely it may be coming from and I don't wanna go to a shop and have them tell me it leacking from eveywhere and then some more places. . .does anyone have suggestions????

O-ring on the distributor shaft is probably the most likely culprit.
