I've replaced the head gasket, valve cover gasket and front crank seal and oil pump o-ring. Still the engine leaks about 2 quarts a week. The oil seems to be coming from the area under the head firewall side and engine to transmission joint. Should I just bite the bullet and yank the engine out to seal it once and for all or is ther something that I am just missing? From what I can see the harmonic damper and the adjacent area looks to be free of flinging oil and my oil filter and sending unit is leak free. Do you think that this much oil could leak from the engine to trans metal gasket? I'm pretty certain the head is not leaking at the gasket interface. I'm kind of embarrassed that I haven't solved it yet after working on cars hobbywise for almost 30 years. Thanks for any help! Keith
