Oil leak from rear of engine. Pics inside Ran the car at the track, and parked it after the run. Had a nice sized oil puddle under it, coming from between the engine and bellhousing. What do you guys think the problem is? It looks like most of the oil is towards the top right two bolts, and dripping down to the starter area, and then to the ground. Gasket maybe?

Picked up a rear cover gasket from GM today, and put it on. I let the car run for about 30 minutes, and no leaking at all. But that's with the car up on stands and no transmission. Once I get the trans rebuilt and installed, I'll see if it leaks under a load.
