Ok, so I need some opinions. I got the motor out today and there are a few things that have me a bit concerned.
Also, before this, a very stupid question. How exactly does one attach the motor to an engine stand. I assume you put bolts through the arm things on the stand into the four holes around the outside of the bell housing (is that the correct term for the side on the engine?). Is this correct?
First:
Do you guys think this oil is due to a head gasket leak? The rear main seal is 100% leaking, but this seems to be different. There is also a fair bit of oil on the top of the motor, under the intake manifold.
This is a bit harder to tell, but there is quite a bit of oil up there.
Second:
There appears to be quite a lot of oil in the intake manifold. Is this normal? Should I be concerned? And what's the best way to clean it out, or should I even clean it out.
Sorry for the poor pictures, it's hard to get enough light inside without confusing the camera
