So got some minor oil leaks on the newly redone 235, one is the fuel pump seal which I might actually fix, the other is either oil pan or rear main seal and I probably won't worry about those cause it's so slow it doesn't really matter I don't think...I used a gasket set as well as rtv silicon on each side of the gaskets. I've never seen and inline Chevy six, not leak from somewhere not that I've seen a ton of them but I'm starting to think it'll leak from somewhere no matter what.

Also some milky oil crap (not much just a drip) comes from my breather tube, but there not really a sign of water in the oil, is this just condensation or something?

Yes, it probably is condensation.🛠

Fuel pump leaks are often from people using split lock washers on the mounting bolts. Oil will wick out the bolt threads and through the split in the washer.


See the USA in your vintage Chevrolet!
