Couple weeks ago while installing a ball joint I noticed a drop of oil on the lowermost bolt of the bell housing. Neddless to say I had my suspicions! Well for the first time since owning my brick there is an oil drip on my driveway!! Yikes!!! Its not coming from the top near my rear mounted distributor and my flame trap is pretty clean for the most part...There is a perforated plastic cover on the lower part of the bell housing and I wonder if removing this would yield anymore clues? Its gotta be pretty involved to replace this seal, removing drive shaft and tranny etc...but with the right jacks and tools what do you fellow bricksters recommend? Approx..shop cost for those of you who have done this ? Thanks
