[V8] oil leak

[Eric Gambon]

Yea it smokes to the point where I was concerned about fire, and yup it
doesn't really do it at idle as bad but it still occurs.

It was too hot last night for me to stick my hand back there, today I will
clean off the back of the head. It doesn't appear to be the valve cover as I
just had the dizzy out and cleaned all around it.
