Oil Leak Help
Hi,
Had a hopefully quick question for you. Did a head gasket change on my 383 stroker not to long ago and since then i have developed an oil leak that appears to originate around the oil pressure sending unit.
Initially I removed the intake and resealed the front and back. Then i went a little simpler when the problem persisted and messed with oil pressure sending unit. Found it a little loose so i added some RTV to it for good measure and re tightened. This did not work either. The only other thing i could think of that happened was when i put the intake back on it pinched the oil pressure line between it and the block. I inspected the line and couldn't find any problems. But i'm still considereing replacing it at this point since i'm a little lost as to which direction to go from here. I'm looking for any suggestions as to where I should look next.
The block is a 1975ish
Hope this made at least a little sense
Thanks Sam
