[Healeys] BJ8 Oil leak

[Tom Felts]

PS----I added an aftermarket seal years ago----I believe it didn't have a rear seal originally.

 body {height: 100%; color:#000000; font-size:12pt; font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;}Discovered a puddle of oil on garage floor under the Healey---center of car around the rear of the engine.  Check all the obvious places. you might find a leak--no luck---cracked pan, filter adapter.  My assumption is a leaking rear main oil seal.  If so-----can this be replaced with the tranny out and engine in car?
Any other ideas on the leak source?
Thankstom
