New build and have her running on a test bed/rolling cart for engine/trans installation. All seems tight with the exception of the rear main area. Short of dis assembly or slathering the cam plug and oil gallery plugs with sealant, has anyone tried pressurizing the oil system and visually looking for a leak? Everything looks ok, but she drips every 4 or 5 seconds when running.
Thanks in advance |

Yes, I had an old flywheel laying around with some heat spots, machined the center hub off and torqued it in place with a new O ring and new Elring seal. Pressurized with about 70PSI and sure enough one of the oil galley plugs was dripping. Took everything apart cleaned things and put the culprit back in. No leak |
