Hey I have a 1978 F-150 302 2wd with a a C4 tranny and I seem to have an annoying leak. My problem is that oil and coolant are collecting on top of thetiming chain cover and I dont know whats causing it. Oil is collecting on the right side of the cover and coolant is collecting on the left. (Right and left as you are sitting in the truck) The engine runs great and has excellent vacuum. This leak seems to be the only problem. One thing that should beknown is that about a year agoI did an intake swap. For the end rails I didnt use any gaskets (as recomended by edelbrock) I used a good amount of black silicone instead. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
