I'm still puzzled with the oil leak problem. After driving it more, it doesnt seem like my motor oil is going down. Further troubleshooting led me to think that maybe the tranny is leaking from the midshaft (half shaft) seal. If this is true, it will explain why I have oil all over the place. As the midshaft rotates, it slings oil all over the back side of the motor. I cant check the oil level on the tranny unless I drain it. But what I will do is use GM syncromesh this time since it has a distinguishing smell and color to it, unlike Honda MTF which is almost the same as a motor oil.....
