Dat Booty tho!
Runs super strong, but is already leaking oil really bad in a really weird place... it's leaking on top of driver's side Intake... pooling there and then running down exhaust.

I think the EGR is leaking and i ordered a new one and new valve covers with new rubber gaskets...
Anyone ever seen this before? Have any ideas?

I just wanna make it stop leaking oil so i can drive it. ;-)

Anyway, looking forward to learning all about olds.

Welcome to the site, looks like a valve cover gasket leak.

Welcome, when you do the valve cover gaskets. I would check the oil returns and make sure they are not clogged.

Swapped Valve covers and EGR... Ended-up being a really stupid thing that I just didn't catch until I did all that work.

Plastic Oil Pressure gauge hose burst and was pumping oil right onto the top of the engine.

Good news is - SUPER EASY FIX!!! And the engine looked good when i had valve covers off. I will post some new pics. Now, i have an electrical gremlin in the column ignition. 2 owners ago, the guy chopped the hell out of all the electronics... wires hanging everywhere. So, i need to basically gut all the wiring and start fresh and neat. (Which is cool anyway, cuz I want to put in the missle-launcher switches for fan and ignition. Cuz i love those.)7

Thanks for recommendations and the warm welcomes.
