need help with oil leak
(94 formula) i had to drop the oil pan down a little bit so i could get my timing cover off, and now i have horrible oil leak. I cant find exactly where its coming from, but the oil is dripping down the side of the oil filter, so i dont know if its coming from where the oil filter screws into or from the pan. Has anybody else had this problem or heard of this problem from just dropping the pan? Also it ran with no leaks at all for a few weeks then all of a sudden it started leaking bad.

Re: need help with oil leak
im thinking that the gasket got moved over the the side right there. so since i'll probably be having to drop the pan again, is there any way that i can get to those pan bolts with the two coolant lines running right next to them, or am i going to have to take that line out again?
