MMMMM...Hardened O rings on the oil filter adapter would be the call...But, after you clean it and watch for where it's coming from keep a good eye on that distributor also. Once oil gets blown around it's about imposable to tell where it came from, so watch it right away after you clean it. There's wright-ups on that adapter btw. ($8 job maybe)............................................ .................................................. ..........Or mount^^
