Stop in for a cup of coffee

Been here before. But it looks like I finely resolved my oil leak. Just started it after the last round of wrenching. Looks dry. So far. I really think it was seeping thru the rear main cap to block. There was zero sealer there from builder. When I replaced the rear seal I sealed it but messed up the gasket install using the wrong type gasket. Really am hoping that is behind me....

I ended up using every trick in book sealing this. I used a steel reinforced one piece gasket. The two spots in front I RTVd with black. Built it up before install. As well as rear sealing surface. Let set up over night. RTV gasket to block. Bolted it on. Let set up overnight. Removed bolts and used RTV to attach pan to block. Making sure to get corners with RTV. Bolted it back on. Now normally I will not use RTV for this gasket. But I was at a loss what else to do.... We will see...
