Not to hijack, but I have the same spewing oil problem. I do know that its not from the rear of the engine. It leaks right on top of the front axle. I sat letting the engine warm up the other day and when I came back I noticed a huge puddle. But I can't find any where that the oil is coming from. I do know that it is coming from the drivers side. Other than that I know nothing else.

Thanks Ray. That is also what my searching seemed to come up with also. I checked with NAPA first when I found the problem but they only sell some kind of tubing in a
3-4 foot chunk. I do not know if it would even hold up. I remember reading in the past about people using boots from a marine application but I could not locate the specifics.

Taking my time and with a buddy helping it only took about 4 1/2 hours. All went
really well. No broken or stripped bolts. Always good. Boy am I sore though! I have
to give a nod to PB Blaster. Wow, that stuff is awesome!
Pat, Thank you for asking and for the input on the boots.
