Brand new rebuilt engine leaking oil after less than 5,000 miles? Where are some places that this oil would this be leaking from? I haven't been able to get it on a lift but should be able to in the next few days so I'd like to know exact places to look when I do? Only place I can think of is the oil pan gasket? I remember someone saying something about a plate of some sort?

Oil pan, rear main seal, motor mount bolts, oil filter, oil filter mount, oil pressure sending unit, oil cooler lines, turbo oil lines...

Motor mounts, rear main seal, and oil pan gasket seem to be the most common. Once you get it on the lift it shouldn't be hard to find.

I've had two oil coolers crack, and seep oil too. Not to mention the cracking the rear steel or end plate, right below the oil filter base. The crack in the rear steel was from getting some detination while running a 150shot of nitrous in my peripheral port engine. CJ
