I have been trying to find/stop a stubborn small
oil leak from my 351W block. It leaks only when cold and
oil appears on the floor under the rear of the engine. It now seems to be a rear main seal. So, as I understand it, the engine and tranny have to be removed to fix this.
First, is this true? The whole engine and transmission have to be pulled to fix this?
Second, assuming this is true, how much should this cost? I don't have the time, space, tools or expertise to do it myself.
Third, is it possible that it is some other thing leaking?
Good, realistic input would be appreciated.
