Advice on this oil leak guys.. I fixed the valley pan leak and now I have this leak to deal with, just not sure of where/ what it might be .. Im saying rear main
but behind the inspection cover the ring gear / converter is quite dry. The leak seems about half way up the block [both sides as you can see] and between the trans. the oil pump seems dry too.. all runs down and wet at the bottom , the leak is quite bad, will start dripping on the ground after a short run.
