Oil pan gasket is where the oil leak is. Checked the bolts and they were loose. Tighten them up till they snug just up. Came home after cleaning it all up yesterday and had 3 drips on the floor and I hadn't even started since the oil change. Hope this solves my problem

That's great news Ray. I'm betting you had a pretty big sigh of relief when you looked at the new cardboard.

Finally got the Chevelle out today for a drive and saw a car show so I dropped in. Ended up getting a news story on it and made the local PDX Car culture photo album. A first for me.
