i have this annoying oil leak coming from the lower right side of the timing chain cover. i have had the cover off 3 times trying to fix (new gaskets and sealant). it is not the crank seal. it seeps out right where the cover and the pan meet. it will only leak when the engine is above idle like the oil is being pushed past the gasket from the timing chain. is there anyone else who has had this problem? what else could i do to solve this?




my boss had this problem on his b-block stroker. he is running a windage tray and double gaskets just like your supposed to do. his problem came in with the timing cover not being long enough to seal up properly.when the cover was put on it just didnt line up perfect. he bought a 440 source cover which was a little longer and the problem was solved. he talked to brandon on the phone for quite some time about it and i guess its a common problem when a windage try is involved.
