Something good to report
THE LEAK IS GONE!!!!!! Fixed my HPOP this week and no more puddle of oil when the truck is parked. The truck runs better seems to have better acceleration but I wonder if that also has to do the cleaning of the EBPS which was clogged like crazy. I want to thank everyone here at FTE for their help you guys are great!!!
On a side note I do believe that there is a a rear main leak because their is no more oil coming for the bell housing but their is a seam of oil around the tranny/bellhousing area I don't know what to call it? Its not bad at all but I like my truck to be in great condition. Would BAR's rear main seal repair work for small leak as this?

The oil is probably coming from the valley and dripping onto the bell housing. It may be diesel fuel from the drain valve on the water separator. Look in the valley to see if it's dry or wet.

The valley is dry I cleaned it after removal of the hpop and after install to make sure no oil is left. I also cleaned the under side of engine too cleaned where the seam of oil is coming from drove it and it returned. Their is no river of oil that I can follow to to find where its coming from it just appears in that area. While the truck is running no seam of oil after I wipe it off. When the truck is turned off the seam appears. Im going to get some pictures up to see if that will help out. With all due respect why no additives? What damage can it do?
