Fellas, I got an odd circumstance and cant seem to understand how its possible. The 383 in my Volare (Sold two years back) is having oil "pool" on top of the valley pan. i understand pool as not just seeping but ounces of oil and not burnt or odd in color. it is a stock bottom end with 346 iron heads, an edelbrock RPM intake with the felpro valley pan and thin gaskets. how or where can oil get to the topside of the valley pan, the new owner say the intake was removed and reinstalled and has the same issue.

this seems beyond odd as the oil is splashed up on the bottom side of the pan and i cant think of anyway oil can get on top. any insites are appreciated. Thanks in Advance Henry
