92a Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 Hi, I’m struggling with a friends series v8 conversion , I’ve been chasing an oil leak which everyone thought was from the power steering , but I have just seen where it’s coming from, this is looking upwards and there is a hole next to the sump bolts (between the webs ) that oil spits out of, any ideas why ?

92a Posted October 5, 2021 Author Share Posted October 5, 2021 Hi , I’ve gone back and stuck a pencil in the hole , I put a cable tie in the hole and it went right into the block , the pencil seems to go through the outer cover them stop so I wondered if there’s a thread in there?

Bowie69 Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 Think this may show it? In which case, yes, it is missing a bolt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
