I have an original 6 engine in my 6 conversion car. I have an oil leak at the stud circled in the pic below. I have tried to torque the nut on this stud without success. I then double nutted the stud to see if maybe the stud and become loose. I was able to turn the stud in a bit so I thought I was making progress. When I removed the double nuts and placed a washer and nut back on to torque to value it won't snug up. Instead, as I torque the nut...the stud begins to turn out. I have a bad feeling about this....Please chime in with your wisdom.

Sorry to say I have had that same problem and nothing works other than split the case....it is one of the dumbest bolts arrangements...long bolt that looks almost like a thru case bolt but oh no taps right into the mag case next to the oil pump lay shaft and will strip in a minute if ruffly handled....I tried everything to stop the leak....the leak just gets worse and then becomes a major oil leak...
