Oil Sending Unit Leaking

jwelch68Member

I believe my oil sending unit is starting to leak and curious if this is common or maybe I've misdiagnosed it.

I removed the Teflon tape and went with the Rector seal 5 thinking that maybe it was leaking around the threads. Oil is still gathering in the valley as you can see in the pics.

I used my scope/camera to look under the intake and it doesn't appear to be leaking from the intake.

I don't see the oil dripping when idling. I can clean the oil up and go for a 15- minute drive come back and have a new puddle.

Any ideas? If it is a faulty sending unit does anyone know the replacement part #?

I'm using the factory Veglia oil pressure gauge.

Thanks,

John
