Probably doesn't have any oil pressure either because the oil pump pickup is full of RTV, too.

On the cooler lines thing....

Dorman makes them in the aftermarket. I sold two sets of them this morning. $25 for each set, give or take.

The '89 350 in my jeep doesn't leak. The pan hasn't been off since it left GM as far as I know. They improved things quite a bit with the one piece rear main seal engines. That's about the only thing on the jeep that doesn't leak though. /forums/images/graemlins/dunno.gif It's an endless battle with axle and transfer case leaks. Fix one, get two new....

Leak? Thats the only way to tell that there is still oil in it right? If it stops leakin, Im in trouble cause its empty! /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

My 350 that was in my K5 never leaked!

My 454 in my K5 now doesn't leak!

My 307 in my 1971 doesn't even leak, but it burns about a quart of oil every 600 miles /forums/images/graemlins/dunno.gif! I guess thats what 370,00 miles will do to piston rings, huh?

My jeep on the other hand...Now that damn 4.0 leaves its mark (and its a BIG mark) everywhere...

Most leaks are caused from over tighting the timingchain and valve covers and oil pan. Also not useing silicone where the gaskets meet up with the rubber seals on the pan.
