Looked in the right side TB cover with a flashlight and saw everything was wet. This is so frustrating! I know it's easier the second time but I was hoping the second time would be at least a year from now. Thanks for allowing me to vent, I'm feeling much better. At least I can say I drove it this year...

Oh yeah, because you're sure to want the info: a rebuilt Laso. I know, I know. Next time it won't be a rebuilt.
Mine leaked on the initial run, then I shut it down and did other stuff. Second start up and no leakage anywhere. I too was ready to turn into the HULK

I suspect the Fan Seal needed that initial heat to get it to seal. Expand then Contract. Hopefully this is your issue.
