hi guys, i recently acquired a 92 F250 with 7.3 IDI (N/A) and E4OD. i noticed the dipstick was gone from the dipstick handle. so i ordered a new one, in an effort to make sure the missing portion wasnt in the tube, i removed the tube, then put it back. ever since then there is an oil leak on the pass side of the motor, below the valve covers and above the starter... yeah right about where the tube enters the block. my question, is there some kind of seal i meesed up when removing/reinstalling it? from the looks of it, i dont want to remove the starter, but im thinking its the best way to pinpoint the leak. thanks guys.
