#952 - 05/30/06 04:10 PM LT1Oil Leak - HeLP, HELP

There is an oil leak on the front of my wife's 1995 Coupe.

It is dripping down and hits the pipe behind the damper pulley and then over the cross member and onto the ground. I have looked and looked and cannot find the source. The manifold to block looks good. Is there some other place it could be leaking and the main reason for concern is there any kind of seal in the Optispark that could be going bad and this oil getting into the Optispark and then running out?

We had this car to a dealer about 6 months ago and had the engine cleaned. They really screwed it up. The Optispark went out. They replaced it at the discounted price of a new Optispark. It started leaking right after that. Needles to say I will not return to them and want to fix this myself if a major problem for the Optispark.

I need help to get her off my butt about the oil on the garage floor.

Thanks,

Pete

Sounds like they screwed up the gasket when replacing optispark as to timing chain cover.
