thanks for your reply and the phone calls I also received regarding this leaking issue.
I was called by a member here and they told me to remove the rear main bearing and put a coating of locktite 518 between the bearing housing and the bearing shell and let it sit over night and then reassemble the motor.
This did just as it was suggested it would do, it sealed the oil from leaking between the housing and the shell.
If any of you have such a leak i would recommend it, it really did do the trick for me....
thanks again for all who have responded.
