Oil Leak

If you blow an oil ring or an oil seal, will you drop oil onto the floor?

My rx-7 is dropping oil right now and I need help.

If the front or rear main seals go bad the oil will hit the floor, Get under the car and clean the motor with carb cleaner then run it and look for leaks. The oil pans will leak as well as the seals , check the front cover too . Third gen turbo oil lines will leak . Check the lines to the oil cooler ,the coolers crack where the fittings screw in .
