Spoke with the shop and thanks about the oil dye thing as will look into using that with more leakage or flow he recommends...

Ivan my friend this is a 1987 per my sig below, so believe that bulletin may apply? He said he hadn't seen that on many in the past.

They also mentioned they couldn't do the full engine and trans cleaning as they don't have that capability at their facility to collect the waste and runoff.

The shop also said that they could do the pulley seal with motor in the car.

They suggest bringing the car in to determine the leak now that it's clean as soon as possible this week which I'll do and report back too.

Thanks for all the input guys, the motor was dropped as the clutch was recently done and they replaced these -

Oil pressure switch
Thermostat oil ring
Breather hoses (both)
Flywheel seal

There was a minor drip on the floor in the garage before but now leaks(s) have increased. Heading out to get the steam cleaning done shortly and will snap more photos of the gearbox prior to cleaning if I can too.

@Ivan yes in San Diego, CA

i thought you said this....
so the engine was out,you do these job in the same time while the engine is out....for you bulletin from 1985 i have not seen any leaks from the oil cooler side plug.Because there is no plug there any longer.....they just wanted to cover their butt with the bulletin....
