[V8] leaking

[Coleman, David]

Hey jer...  U sure it's not leaking from lower down, like the rear main?

Or the oil pressure sender?

If the dizzys are clean, there isn't a whole lot more to blame, unless maybe you didn't put a bit of gasket sealer in the corners of the v-cover gaskets where they bend?

Well, injectors rebuilt the car is running fine.  However replacing the
valve cover gaskets didn't effect the oil leak under the car.  Seems to be
coming from the back of the engine.  What are the usual suspects? 

 

Breather hoses have been replaced.  VCGs have been replaced.  RMS has been
replaced.  I hear distributor seals are a usual suspect, but I see no
wetness coming form the dizzies.

 

Ideas?

 

Also (when it rains it pours), the $150 radiator hose I replaced 4 years and
35k ago decided to spring a leak in the middle of bottom side of the T.
Ingo, is the 'deal' still going on?  Does anyone have a good-used one they
would sell me?

 

Thanks in advance,
