If you can't find anyone, I have a old buddy that would do it. He's not too far from my house here in SA. I would just need to get in contact with him. He did some work for me on your TA (mine at the time). What's your plans?

Damn, and I thought LME was the chit. I guess you have to weigh quality/prices to get the best bang for the buck.

Oh, alright. Could be the rear seal, pretty common.

yeah that what it looks like but there is oil under the intake manifold and the tranny is leaking from the pan and tail and the differental is leaking. fixed the tranny pan and will fix the differental next weekend but there is oil everywhere on the motor front to back so it maybe several leaks unsure. hopefully its just from under the intake and rearseal that should explain most of the oil.
