Minor oil leak.

[98hoe]

I have been noticing a few drops of oil in the driveway. Nothing major at all, 4 or 5 drops is all in like a 2 month period. So I crawled under to double check the welds on my new flows. Shimmied up to the motor and found a single drop just wait for some help to fall. At first I thought it was the rear main seal. Continued to shimmy and found a bar going across in the front was moist with oil also. This is a freshly rebuilt motor with under 1000 miles on it. Is this something I should be worried about? I don't really want it back in the shop. I need my hoe!! What should i DO???

theres no doubt i'd worry about it, and it would be right back in the shop.. but i know what you mean about needing a vehicle

Yes, you have a brand new engine and the thing is already leaking. It should be under some type of warranty? I just got all my leaks taken care of mostly. Just degreased the whole engine and no sign of leakage yet, but time will tell.
