Re: Rear Main Seal Replacement

I got under the car and really started looking around. I pulled the lower torque converter cover and it was dry in there. I think it would be a mess in there with oil being slung all over the place. I think the oil that was coming out the weep hole in the cover seeped in from either the oil pan gasket or valve cover gaskets. It didn't seem there was enough oil on the block running down to create the slick under the car but there must have been. I'm in the process of installing new valve cover and engine oil pan gaskets. Here are some pictures of what I saw under there. I'm so glad I don't have to mess with the rear main seal. I did find a "sneaky pete" on ebay for $25.00 in case I needed to replace the rear main seal. Thanks everybody for your input. Brian
