The fun never ends :)

After chasing every oil leak known to man, I have a tiny drip
from what appears to be the rear drivers side of the motor.
Intake is recent, along with valve covers and oil pan gasket kit.
Im thinking back of the motor somewhere near dist.
Outside of the intake, where should I start to look?

TIA

There isnt to much left. Recheck all your work, look at the oil filter and cooler adapter, rear of the intake, dist. gasket, oil pan etc..etc.... Hopefully it not the rear main seal.

Also check the oil temp sensor just above the oil filter. Pull back the rubber connector cover to check for oil.

Alot of c-4's have the 2 sending units that screw into the tee next to dist. 3 possible leaks in 1 small package. If you pull them to check I like permatex liquid teflon. This stuff has never let me down when sealing threads.
