Thanks Dave,
I met an old stoveboloter a couple of weeks ago. I have a call into him to see if he as a deflector. If not, I'll let you know.
My engine is a 1960, I assumed the leak was because I used a rope seal when I should have used a neoprene seal. Could be that I just put it together wrong too. I'll know more when I drop the pan. May have to wait a couple of weeks though, Average temp outside is over 100. too hot to be laying under a truck.
