Don,

Thanks for the answer. The bottom end and undercarriage are clean enough to eat off of and the oil just won't even show on it. I have to take my finger and run it along to find any oil film. The air currents are what makes this one so hard to find as the drips come from behind the engine and up where oil has blown into the bracket. I have tried running it and watching with no luck at all. I do know for certain that it is on the left or drivers side and is a very small leak. I just had the engine rebuilt a month ago and had hoped that would stop it as it has had a small drip ever since I bought the car in 69 brand new. Not enough to worry about, but just something that I would like to pin down for my own knowledge. I talked to the engine builder and he said call him next Wednesday and if he has his lift free I can bring the car down and we will put it up on the lift and see if we can spot anything. The darn car even dripped oil while the engine was out of it at the builders. Must have generated it's own supply during that time.

Ron
