If mostly on the left side, consider the oil cooler seals.<br>
<br>
If both sides, maybe the main crank seal, where windage blows it back along <br>
the bottom.<br>
<br>
For pushrod tube seals, you should be able to get a good look from the <br>
bottom rear with a flashlight.<br>
<br>
Note that oil leaks tend to wash their places clean, so the dirty areas are not <br>
where you'll find the problem.<br>
