[V8] oil leak/ RMS

[David Head]

Not necessarily - BTDT. Problem was a leaky upper pan gasket (in the 
rear). Came out the same 2 drain holes as the RMS would. Go to the 
trouble of pulling your reference sensors or the starter first to see if 
they are covered with oil. I have a checklist made up for pulling the 
trans if you get to that point...
