Benjy Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 If the back of the cam cover seals leak mate it can give the illusion of the rear main oil seal. If it's definitely not the cam cover seals, either the rear main or sump is a bit of a bitch of a DIY job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swampy442 Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Pull the inspection cover off the bell housing and see if its wet inside there, thats the giveaway for a rear seal. They don't tend to go that often though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TT Paul Posted July 8, 2015 Author Share Posted July 8, 2015 Ye had that off other day when sealing diff and was oily inside. Autobox off then i guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TT Paul Posted July 22, 2015 Author Share Posted July 22, 2015 Right cam cover seals done all good. But on back of block below cam cover feels like a large allen head bolt/blank. Its wet around there easy to fix... o ring.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You sure it doesn't just need tightening or that the oil around it has dropped from the cam cover leak? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TT Paul Posted July 22, 2015 Author Share Posted July 22, 2015 Cleaned it with brake cleaner and no oil from cam seals all dry bud The allen bolt is on back of block near bulk head too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
