I would try to find somebody who has a leak detector dye kit and light > then pressure wash the entire engine > set up on stands safe safe add the dye run engine hot until YOU SEE WERE the leak appears Eliminate the guessing > a simple leak can be hard to trace oil blows around by the fan the clutch/flywheel assembly so i would want to see exactly were its dripping > two places i am suspicious of first a rear main seal second but more remote the camshaft plug above the rear of the crank ,sending units leak ? and intake gaskets all so crank case pressure that is high can put pressure on gaskets and seal ~ Copey
