tracing my leak
Well, got the fpr rebuilt,gonna put some miles on her today. I had her running in the driveway and was looking for my oil leak near the turbo. I thought I saw a drop of oil come out of the pass side rear pedistal bolt. If this was the case would that be the pedistal o-ring leaking? Thanks.

Could be or could not be, hard to tell until you pull it. Just ask RubberDuck & Norton72. Check this out: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/7...-finished.html

Yep, read that whole thread and make sure you do as Plowhand suggested in there and check for leaks by applying low air pressure to the oil ports after removing the turbo. If we had not done that we never would have found the REAL source of my leak.
