Reply to "Oil spray"

Oil on the rear window or the top of the decklid can be from any of a number of choices including the front main seal, rocker cover gasketss, a loose dipstick tube in the extreme front of the block, a leaky pan gasket or loose pan bolts in front, etc etc. The normal airflow is mostly from under the car, up past the motor and out the rear window opening, due to the huge low-pressure area this decklid configuration makes. Some airflow obviously makes it all the way under & out the rear. At higher rpms, the most likely source is blow-by forcing oil out the front seal or the breather grommets; my best guess.....
