I was under my 1987 Van today and saw something that looks bad. Their is oil
everywhere It's engine oil and it's coming (I think) down thought the bell
housing I'm afraid it's the rear engine seal.
I would like to know how bad of a job it is to replace and if I have to have
it done in a shop about what should I expect to pay to get that done?

Does anyone know what size allen wrench the top starter bolt is? Someone here
said to let the allen key brace it self against the bell housing and take the
nut off the other end but, on mine it's just bolts that go into the bell
housing.
Thanks again for any and all information.
