Default Oil Leak Driver Side
I'm getting ready for Carlisle this weekend and have been having trouble with an oil leak on the drivers side near the precat....in fact the leak is hitting the precat. It appears to be from just above the oil cooler/filter location. Valve cover gaskets are new and that area is dry. :banghead:

Any thoughts as to a cure??

Thanks in advance....

Maybe the port where the dipstick can go on some SBC Chevys. Should have a solid plug in it, but might be seeping.

That's your oil temp. sender; it's a simple replacement for low $$.
