If you use a hose attached to the oil pan for easier oil changes, check all
the fittings between the end of the hose and attachment at the oil pan.

Several years ago I bought a new Chevy truck that developed an oil leak, The
mechanics added some sort of dye to the oil, told me to drive it for a week,
then come back. If I remember correctly, they used a black light to then
find the origin of the leak. The dye evidently showed up very well under the
black light. They also said the dye was harmless and there was no reason to
change the oil until the normal interval. Maybe you can get the dye from a
Chevy dealer.

This is going to sound lame, but I am having a heck of a time finding an oil
leak on my 120 Lehman/34Chb.  . . . . . .  Any tips you have
to find the culprit would be appreciated.  How about an oil dye or something
to make the source more identifiable?  Thanks  Tom
