I have a Roush 402 and TKO600.
After double checking the oil pan, I replaced the valve cover gaskets. Any time I notice a drip on the bellhousing, it never fails that the valve covers need to be snugged a bit. Tighten and no more drips.
I also have had an oil drip from the mechanical speedo connection on the side of the TKO. Turns out the metal cylinder was missing an O-ring.
