Oil leak towards the rear of the engine?
The front oil leak has been taken care of- my mechanic ended up making his own tool and not having to pull the radiator or anything. It appears it was the chain tensioner bolt that had backed itself out.
Anyway, I still have an oil leak towards the rear of the engine. It is dripping down right near the torque converter. What is the most likely source? It's dark black, definitely oil and not tranny fluid. I know that I will have to clean the engine well and then get back under there and look for myself but just wanting some likely suspects. |

rear main, valve cover gasket, oil filter housing to block gasket.

I had a leak at the back end of the engine and didn't take the time to really check it out and it cost me a spun bearing. It was the oil filter top wasn't on tight.
