Also, the rubber sleeves that connect the pushrod tubes to the case can leak. Best approach is to remove the baffling under there and clean it off real good then run it again. If you can cover the area with talc, any oil will leave a trail back to the source. Once you locate the leak, there's no substitute for fixing it right. If the case seam leaks, you'll probably have to split it to correct it. If you ignore it, you won't know how bad off it is. The case could be fretting due to a failed center main bearing web (worst case).
