92' LT1 oil leak > smoking from engine compartment and exhaust
I have a 92' LT1 with 135,000mi. Recently I have had a bad oil leak problem. I replaced the Opti cap/rotor a couple of weekends ago and when I had it apart I also replaced the Cam seal. Last weekend I replaced the Valve seals. I thought I had it fixed because 4 of the seals needed to be replaced. The valve guides looked good. I am still getting smoke out the exhaust and in the engine compartment on the driver side. I have checked the Oil Pressure sending unit at the back of the motor under the EGR for leaking but it isn't leaking there. It isn't leaking from the intake or the valve covers. Is there someplace else it could be leaking where I would see this condition, besides the Piston rings?
