thanx Mike..I'll try that...I fired the engine up again yesterday to see
exactly where the leak was coming from and found that it had slowed down to
about 1/4 or even less than it was initially..Hopefully i will get this solved
without a major tear down..

John,
Sorry, I didn't notice if anyone replied or not, so I'll take a stab at
it anyway.
Yes, you can replace the TC gasket by lowering the oil pan. It's a
pain, but can be done. The hard part is getting the pan gasket to seal
properly afterwards.

Great...so you didn't have to remove the timing cover at all even??I just
did a cam change and was lucky enough that the leak isn't that bad that I
couldn't do the proper breakin time..but I bet I lost a quart in 1/2 an hour..I
just kept adding a bit in the vale cover as some leaked out...
Hi guys...Does anyone have any tips on fixing a leak on the timing cover oil
pan gasket on a small block???..Can the oil pan be lowered enough with the
engine in the car to replace it??
