I walked into my garage and found a black mess all over my garage floor. Thank goodness I had sealed the concrete! Fortunately, I was able to clean up the mess. After a great deal of investigation, I found the oil leak. Apparently, the fan shroud vibrated enough to rub a hole through the lower aluminum oil line where it is threaded into the radiator. My research showed that these aluminum oil lines are no longer available. I was able to have tube repaired by having a Master Welder solder/weld/braze/etc the hole. To prevent additional damage, I increased the depth of the slot in the side of the fan shroud and wrapped both aluminum tubes with a small piece of truck inner tube. Hopefully, I won't have to make another repair such as this...
