Spent this evening disassembling parts of the motor to get a better view of what I've got going on.
First off, I removed the rocker covers.
On my #3 intake, #6 intake and #4 exhaust, I found the rocker shafts had moved a bit... causing a slight leak.
#3 intake was the worst... the shaft had moved maybe a little less than 1/2".
So, I moved them all back and torqued them down again.
I then re-torqued the head studs... none were loose.
Next I disassembled the engine mounting crossmember, carrier and crank pulley to get a better look at that nose bearing.
There is no way to tell where the leak is coming from along the seam. The main seal looked suspicious so I removed it.
Then I came up with a half assed idea of putting an air hose up to the crank case breather hose and trying to blow air into the case and see if I could spot a leak along the seam.
... no dice.
I even put a coating of motor oil along the seam to try and aid in seeing any possible leaks.
...told you it was hair brained...
So, then I moved to the back of the engine and removed the clutch and flywheel.
Cary.... you can forget mailing me that flywheel installation tool...
it definately is NOT leaking from the seal.
it is coming from the case half about two inches down from the flywheel seal.
So that is two places along my case seam that it is leaking oil.
The drip under the flywheel is much, much slower than the one around the nose bearing... but.... ARGGGGGGGGG...
I'm a little frustrated right now... just wanted to post an update.
I'll get back at it tomorrow.
