I think that did occur up top. But now even regular driving (hot) will cause oil leakage.

Start spraying ALL of the ducting fasteners with a GOOD penetrant. Repeatedly until the engine is dropped. If the mentioned fasteners are an indication, start spraying every fastener related to dropping the engine. If loosening up and they start snapping, you’re making an easy job harder and longer.

Well... replaced the seals with the engine in. It was pretty easy. Just took my time and even my big hands and fingers were able to reach in for the bolts and washers. Hardest part was getting the upper oil filter console bolt out.
However, it wasn't just the seals (or maybe not at all). It appears that the oil cooler itself is the culprit. Not going to try and replace that without pulling the motor. |
