90 v6 oil leak from hell !!! and happy new year !!

[mike]

mine has a leak from the head/block joint...it's maybe
a third of the way back on the right hand head and
runs down into the valley and hence to the exhaust,
it's been doing it for years.

some people say you can cure it by tightening the head
bolts 1/4 of a turn with the engine stone cold
but.....
