I've taken two road trips in the last month, one 120 and one 250 miles round trip. On both of them, I noticed a strange oil leak. I have not pinned it down yet, bit it may be the new manifold. I found oil on the tranny bell housing and some over by the charcoal canister. Some made it to the exhaust as I smelled it enroute. I'm wondering if it is squirting out between the back of the block and the top of the manifold? I hosed it all off and plan to take a closer look this weekend if time permits.

The leak doesn't appear to start until after sustained cruising at 65-70MPH. I may need to borrow Dan's clear cover!!!
