haha, i think you guys got every seal listed

Wheres your main oil at in the engine? Clean it up, take a short drive and try and narrow down where its coming from.

its almost looking like it coming from the pan or rear main in just seeps very little hits the axles and hits the cat and starts smonking.

go to NAPA and by some additive for your oil. it glows in the dark and you can use a blacklight to track down the leak.

it works everytime

WTF? lol.

Find the highest point of oil on the motor and there's your leak. I can't think of any two possibilities on the same side/height of the motor, so it shouldn't be too hard.
