ok here is what has been done
complete engine rebuild so all gaskets are all new
got it back in truck and running was checking for leaks etc. and found a severe oil leak located at the rear of the oil pan on the right side..
pulled trans because i suspected faulty rear main seal seal was dry but there was some oil between oil pan and block so engine was raised and oil pan was pulled and oil pan gasket was replaced.
put truck all back together just to find that it is still leaking in the same place.. could this just be a cracked oil pan? or just the stupid after market design of the oil pan gasket which varies from the OE style in groove gasket?
also does anyone know where to find the OE style Gasket?
