So it looks like replacing the rear main seal didn't stop my oil leak. After
taking a closer look, it seems the oil is also leaking from the bottom of
the case, at the seam.

I'm assuming I didn't seal the case well enough when I put it together about
1 month ago. I used that little tube of yellow liquid stuff that came with
my gasket set. I guess it didn't work. I talked to a guy I know who builds
racecar motors for bugs, and he uses black RTV silicone. He told me to use
it when I put my motor together the first time, but I didn't listen. Another
guy told me he used to seal air-cooled cases with a piece of string, and
they never leaked.

So my question is, what is the best stuff to use? I don't think I'll be
using that yellow liquid stuff this time, unless someone tells me that's the
way to do it. I remember I put it on lightly. I didn't want to use too much.
Anyway, please give me some advise, since I'll be pulling my motor and
taking it apart tomorrow. Thanks.
