Thread: Oil leak

  1. #1

    Default Oil leak

    Anyone rebuilt one of these engines that might know if there is an oil plug on the rear of the engine ( covered by the flywheel ) that could possibly leak? It doesn't appear to be the rear main leaking.

    Try looking above the bellhousing at the back of the block. There is a hose that goes from the oil psi sender at the passenger side rear of the block up to the back of the head. They break. Have fun replacing it by the way. I think I had nightmares for weeks after swapping mine.

    I have posted a picture of that line on here somewhere when I removed my stock motor.

    Yeah, I thought I had one on here as well. I just went and took this picture of the oil line from Pistolnut's truck.

    Thanks for the reply gimpy but it is not the hose. Oil leak is coming from within the flywheel housing and doesnot appear to be the rear seal, wondering if there is a oil plug in there that I haven't seen.
