The topic on Transmission pan gasgets brings another problem I have with my ROCKWELL tranny Pan. After installing my transmission oil pan. I had a horrible leak from the bolts in the pan. Enough to fill a 1 quart container in less than a week. The oil is comming from the bolt holes and not around the flange at the the transmission. I used a fiber pan gasget and aviation sealer so I would seal it up well. See the 4 pictures I've uploaded showing the leak.

While I was able to "Patch" or "Stop Gap" the leaks using fiber washers under the bolt heads. Actually trapping the oil in the bolt holes. There is some other problem I would think.

Porosity - Maybe
Cracks - Maybe

Any ideas?
