I have a bad oil leak under my truck between the block and bellhousing. My assumption was the rear main seal but when I removed my transmission the seal looks like it is in good shape (engine rebuilt 5 yrs ago). It could possibly be oil pan gasket that curves around my rear seal.
So I went back over to my transmission and the inside of the bellhousing is covered in wet oil. Much much more than what’s on the engine block. It actually puddled at the bottom of the bellhousing so I dipped my finger in it to smell it and it doesn’t have an exhaust smell like used engine oil. Could it be a leak from the transmission side?
