    OK i have a 95 powerstroke and now its leaking oil from the right side of the block, somewhere above the starter. It don't look like its coming from the top have of the motor. Does any one have a clue what it might be before i have to tear in to the motor? Thanks.

    if any one was wondering what the problem was it wound up being the bracket that holds the dip stick tube to the oil pan. the flange on the inside broke off and was able to let oil run out the side of the pan.

    so was i. just to bad that i pulled the block out just to find that out, but it does give me a chance to put new gaskets on every thing.
