hi i have a 1978 gmc, with a fairly modified 350. There is an oil leak at the rear of the engine block, and i can't see where it is comming from. i know it is not the oil pan, i have replaced the gasket three times, and the oil pan once. if you have any suggestions, they would be much appreciated. thanks.

you may have a rear main seal leaking or it could be 1 of the 3 oil galley plugs in the back of the block right above the rear camshaft plug or as i recently discovered on my own 350 i found a small crack on the top of the rear of the block under the intake manifold end seal

yea it could be one of those plugs or it could just be the rear seal of the intake manifold.
