I repalced the clutch and all repated parts, so I know the main seal was fine (clutch disk etc. were all dry). I got the car from a guy who had the car professionally maintained and kept the engine spotless. He said, and I agree that the oil looks to be coming from the oilpan gasket area. Also all the other gaskets were replaced (valve cover, tappet inspection cover). I have done an oil pan gasket change on a 64' ford falcon and remember it being pretty bad, the fuel pump actuation lever had broken off and dropped into the pan. I think I will probably try to do it with out removing the engine 1st and then if it is just too difficult, i'll go buy the hoist and pull the engine.
thanks
Pete
