oil leak

[ramman]

My truck has two oil leaks that are driveing me nuts,the dealer replaced the front cover gasket about a month ago and it appears to be leaking again,on the passenger side near the water pump corner of the cover seems to be same place as before,and another on the other side that ends up dripping fom the bell housing cover,just replaced the valve covers and they appear fine,any ideas or expereinces from others needed. Not major leaks but makes my garage floor a mess and the under side of the truck,four or five drops a day sure does make things nasty.

ramman,
Don't know about bottom leak.
But could top leak be from the valve covers,especially from the last cover on rear side.

ramman -- Read my post under "killer dowel will kill no more" - the answer to rustnrots' question - that should work good on your leak. Sometimes I also spray the suspect area with soapy water and watch for bubbles.
Good luck CPFF

It's not the valve covers as I checked again today,the front leak ends up dripping off the lower front cover bolt and the ac/bracket but I can't find where it originates,the other side appears to be coming from the inj pump .
