Slight oil leak. Hey guys, I have a small oil leak between the oil pan and the trans bellhousing. I noticed this after an oil pump install. Im thinking its ethier the oil pan gasket or the rear main, what is more common and what can i do about it. Thanks

If the leak started AFTER your oil pump install, it is the oil pan gasket. You should drop the pan again and check the gasket to make sure it still has some "spring". If the gasket is still in good shape, put a small dab of sealant on the little waffle pads at each corner, then reinstall and torque properly.
