Re: 1970 Chevrolet C20 Pickup - Motor Leaking Oil

Engines don't have to leak But it may be more work than you're after to fix the leaks you find. The question kinda becomes if the leak is a Big Deal - is it irritating or something that's gonna get worse or fail completely.

Don't drive yourself nuts. Clean the engine then use a UV dye kit from your local parts shop. Tells you *exactly* where it's leaking in a pretty short time.

But yeah...gotta put a plug in where that open grommet is. May not be your leak, but definitely is chuffing out oil spray. Your local parts place will have a plug, or Summit.
