[V8] Leak Question

[kneale at knitknacks.com]

Check first that it's not the crankcase ventillation hose that snakes up
the back of the engine to the valve cover or the crossover vent hose to the
other valve cover.  Both are famous for disintegrating from the oil in the
vapors.  Check the valve cover gaskets too.

If it's not that, try some of Bernie Benz's snakeoil engine leak sealant
(all kinds of brands at different FLAPS).   A rear main seal replacement is
a significant mechanical endeavor involving removal of the transmission.

I'm currently leaking what I think is oil. I think my main seal is the
culperate, its leaking right on the exhaust pipe towards the back of my
motor. My oil pressure that off fine but then drops to about 2bars and motor
doesn't have to much power. Is this a main seal leak and are these common
symptoms and if so what are some other symptoms and the easiest way to fix
it.
