Had my 960 straight six engine fully rebuild put it in car and leaking out of intermediate section on the left side,(intake side) to check where it was coming from we took of left hand side engine mount supported engine and ran it and you could see it coming out in a few spots on the left side between the block. Took engine out of car and back down to the engine re builder and he pressure tested it no oil leaks. My thoughts are that when the engine is in the car and running and warm the intermediate section moves/expands or twists and the oil comes out. Probably not torqued up right or a bad sealing job as there is no gasket and its a chemical seal. What do you all think.
