I have a 56 Chevy with a warmed up 61 348, with a similar rear seal leak down through dust cover. No oil coming through the draft tube nor is oil/vapor/pressure coming through the oil filler tube. Most of the oil comes out after the engine is shut down, while some drips while running. I am running Rotella 15W-40, with Shell Zinc additive.
I can remove the oil pan easily. I have photo and video evidence of installing (correctly) the rear seal and the small rubber tabs under the rear main cap. Can these items be replaced with the engine in the car, by taking the rear cap off (possibly one more cap), removing the tabs and rotating the two halves of the rear seal out of their grooves. It will be a major PIA to remove the engine, as I have power steering, A/C, power disc brakes, custom shroud, etc.--all is CLOSE proximity. Any recommendations for sealer under the caps?
