I fired up my brand new 2056 and after my engine break in (12 minutes) I had a texas sized puddle under my car (im guessing a quart). It came from the oil cooler side, in that area. I dont know if pics would even help, but is there any way to check that my oil cooler seals seated properly? Originially I thought my galley plug wasnt fully seated (i drilled and tapped the galleys), but that appears to be snug. Or is there possibly something else in the area that would leak?

Ive gone through a series of valve cover gasket failures that released collassal amounts of oil. I also was certain it was the oil cooler seals and went through almost the entire replacement before I replaced the gasket, which had curled up away from the seating area- either an installation error or faulty gasket (uh, somehow...).
so anyway- check that right side gasket. |
