Strange, I finally got the car "streetable" and started driving the car around to make sure everything works. After a few minutes of driving, I noticed a lot of "clean" oil around the shift linkage and the engine mount bar. Where is it coming from? I saw some oil on the engine tin where the cylinders meet the head, but I wiped that off, and drove around, and there is not much on there after driving. Just alot around the linkage and bar area. It would drip when I'm driving too, (I can tell because I see a trail of small drips of oil on the ground.) I checked the oil after the car somewhat cooled down, and it's about 5mm-8mm higher than the top mark.

Any Ideas?
I would take a pic, but my camera is jacked up. (damn butter fingers)

Hmm, yeah I did take the flaps out. Damnit, I knew I would forget something! so the little bolt where the little wheel would go should hold the oil back in? Hahaha!
