Does the engine need to come out to put new seals in the oil cooler? I thought I heard somewhere it can be done without removing the engine. If not, the engine in Joes red one will be coming out.

Well, the engine is a 2.6 liter I built a year or so ago and it couldnt have but 600 miles on it. The problems started with an external oil cooler addition. Then he took the car to a few different mechanics to have other stuff done and the last time he got it home it was pouring out oil from what the mechanic said was the front seal. He dropped the front of the engine down today and the front seal was perfect, I came over and helped him get it back in there and fired it up and got underneath it to see where it was coming from. It flows very heavy from the oil cooler. It's like there is no seal in there at all.
