Oil Leak

What could be the cause of engine oil leaking from in between the tranny and the engine, i just got a used engine swaped in since i blew the old one.....


Another issue is some smoke is coming out from in between the stock header and my downpipe, could it just be a bad seal since it does not smell like burnt oil

You may need a new oil pan seal. Did you remove or replace the oil pan?

If its leaking between the engine and transmission its either a rear main or the oil pan. Replace the donut gasket on the stock manifold between it and the downpipe.



Number 14. About $15.
