Well,
I thought my rear main seal blew out but, found it was my pan gasket that
blew out..

Sorry for the poor quality.. pics from my crackberry...

Funny thing.. When I went to drain the oil I found this.

No cracked block, no cracked head, no bad head gasket.
I had 3 studs that went into water-jackets that did not seal.
The water "wicked" the studs and got into the pan.
Un freaking believable!

Everything is on its way to the machine shop.

Oh.. I broke 3 springs and 3 rocker arms too..
No pics yet..
