have'nt been here in months
hey guys thanks for the welcome, I have not been online in months (hate computers) and it's nice to see other LongIslamders here. I would like to show some pics, but I'll have to figure out how to do that. my last cruise was a sunday morning to OBI parking lot, last month and when I got home the oil puddle on the garage floor was bigger than the usual spots I've been used to over the past decade, however now the oil spray is all over the bell housing/tranny and I fear the worst, like having to deal with a rear main seal... will the motor have to be pulled..? or can I replace the seal with the motor still in the car... is it also true that I'll have to drop the oil pan and loosen the main bearings to remove the old seal..??

Verify where the oil is coming from. According to the '62 shop manual the 348/409 needs to be pulled to remove pan. (yea, I tried to remove the pan with the motor in the car) Good luck Leo
: Kenoil leak
the motor in my 62 is a 64 QC block, single 4 bbl carb, hydraulic cam.., transmission is an M20 4spd.., definitely an oil leak coming off the back of the motor, dripping down from the bell housing, now appears to be a pressure
leak when the motor is running... does the 64 QC block also need to be pulled in order to get at the seal..??

Check to make sure it is not the valve cover corner or the back of the intake manifold. The motor needs to be pulled to remove oil pan. The problem is the counter weights are pretty big and the oil pan has very little clearance from the cross member. A small block pan can be removed by lifting the motor about 3 1/2" and rotating the crank to a certain position.
