Not sure. I just know I did a healthy blast of PB Blaster for each cylinder and a few ounces of the Marvels. I saw it dripping from underneath. The lower oil pan is removed.
That is why I am concerned. Not sure "how" or from "where" the oil could run leak out. I think #4 is actually #6 in the firing order, and one of the pistons has to be in the upward position. This may explain why the car only has 55K miles, but looks really rough underneath and has not ran since at least 2013. After around eight hours, the PB Blaster & Marvels is seeping out of the engine, so it is working its way past the rings.
I plan on turning by hand from the crank bolt before trying to turn it over.
