Default Oil Leak ?????

Well, after a lot of hard work changing the water pump ,oil seals, rollers, belts, and hoses i still have an oil leak. It looks like it is coming fro the bottom of the oil coller or the top of the balance shaft cover. My guess would be the oil pump. Do i need to remove the exhaust manifold to get to the oil cooler? It drips every 3 seconds. That sucks... Thanks Neal

Occasionally, but usually the leak is from the oil pressure sending unit or the crush seals around it or the OPRV.

Hay Doc, I was looking at the pic's of your car, Looks great.
I was able to slow the oil leak down. I think i will drive it for alittle while, and see how it does. I am enjoying, working on the porsche. I only drive it alittle. Its a toy.
Think you for all the help. It is nice to be able to get ideals from the Pro's. See Ya . Neal
