leakin oil like a stuck pig.

I think it might be the pan gasket. But when I stop It leaks about 6 drops the size of a silver dollar. It smokes and everything. I've put a bunch of oil in just to keep it from goin KABOOM! Some help would be awesome.

Sounds more like a rear main seal although I must admit I have stuck a few pigs and never had oil come out so.....

If it's smoking real badly my guess would be the valve covers (it would be hard for oil to drip from the oil pan up to the exhaust manifold). You might have a few oil leaks like I did. The valve covers and front seal make the biggest mess and the oil pan is a real PITA to do with the motor in the vehicle.

Welcome to the 2.9 club.

Someone needs to invent a heat resistant Kotex for these motors.

Well it leaks onto the tranny crossmember.I know this cuz it covered in grease.

Mine is leaking BAD too. Bout to do the valve cover gaskets soon and I'm sure it'll still leak. I already changed out the rear main seal and bought the oil pan gasket but looked like there was enough room in the front until you look at the pan from the back and no way. There is no room.

I have already replace the valve cover gaskets so i know that isnt it. Well at least on mine.
