Re: And it still leaks!!!
UV dye in the oil and a black light. Pull the flywheel cover. Clean it as good as you can add the dye, start it and watch for the leak. You'll probably want to do this after dark so you can see it with the black light.
If it leaks when idling and in neutral it is more than likely a place where there is oil pressure meaning a galley plug of cam plug or oil filter. If it only leaks when you drive it and not when you are idling in neutral, my bet would be the rear of the oil pan of the rear main seal. Another option would be to get a oil priming tool, remove the distributor and have a friend prime it with a drill while you look for the leak with a black light. How many miles on the motor?
