Oil leak from the back side of the oil pan

Da Flash · 07-12-2024, 05:11 PM

I was doing a bit of maintenance on my Z and noticed a slight drip of oil coming from the back side of the pan. Did Nissan use a gasket or is it just RTV? I'm guessing RTV since I can't find a part number anywhere for a gasket!

Thanks in advance for your replies!!

It is just RTV.

Start from the top of the motor and work your way down. It may just be a valve cover leak running down the block.
