Yep, i had the truck monday , tuesday and wednesday. I had a bunch of other work and i originally thought it was a return line from the turbo leaking... i was wrong.... wasted a lot of time on monday on that and got some other work done. Tuesday was more regular work so i could spend wednesday on tommys truck. We had it narrowed down to the upper oil pan but were gonna do the rear cover as well to be safe.

........

Anyway, ... we discussed it and decided it will be best if the engine was pulled and resealed outside of the truck....

Thank you tommy for giving me the opportunity with the truck. I wish i had more time to help you out.
