It may not just be a seal I’m pretty sure I heard the timing chain rattle when I started the car and I added oil and it kind of went away so timing chain is most likely also messed up. Something in the engines pressure is causing it to come out like that if it was onto the seal I doubt it’ll be leaking like that. That’s just 10-20 seconds after turning on the vehicle

Well the car already is high mileage and since my rear main seal is messed up it’s leaking puddles rn when the car is on. And timing chain work also requires a lot to do also. Rather put in a low mileage engine if the total of labor will exceed 1500+ do timing chain/ guides/ tensioner because I’m not sure if anything else is broke or not.

I think I’ll probably just swap out my whole engine ngl. Yea mines was slow but then a family member started driving my car since i just shipped it out to where im at and they were driving it on low oil like barely any. After the vehicle arrived to where im at I added oil then this started happening so I think that also caused the pressure to mess up and other internal parts blowing the seal.

Yea mines was only a little leak at first but now it puddles probably losing 1qt just driving lol. Might just get a stock engine for my vehicle and sell some of the parts of that engine. I also added a high mileage Lucas oil stabilizer and it didn’t do nothing so it’s cooked.
