Has anyone ever successfully repaired a rear main seal leak by dropping the oil pan, removing the lower seal and tapping out (rubber/neoprene) or pulling (rope) seal and replacing with a new seal on a y-block?
I have the power steering out for rebuild and will be replacing the starter. There are 2 oil drip spots on some cardboard under the car: one coming from the very back end of the oil pan just after the oil drain plug and the other at the lowest spot on the front edge of the bell housing. if I drew a line between the 2 drips it would form a straight line down the center of the car. I assume the leak is from the rear main seal.
I am not a proponent of a snake oil remedy, but has anyone used a product called AT-205 Resealer which is supposed to be a seal conditioner. I have read more positive than negative reviews.

Thanks,
Danny
