very weird... you mean between it and the lifter cover? yup.. not finding any there... the little rubber boot that connected the cooler to the oil cooler had a leak back in june.. that was replaced.. they did a good job of cleaning up after that mess...

Rut-Roh. Shawn, I had the same problem with Black. Do you notice any spray on your hood or degas bottle? If you've blown the head gaskets, you'll start getting that.
