Okay so i've been a proud Blazer owner for a little over a year. It has always had a small oil leak, i've searched for the starting point but cannot find it. I've traced the oil to what I think is the Oil pan. Obviously this doesn't mean it is leaking from there. I saw a similar post to mine a while back but cannot find it for whatever reason. Any information helps!![1997 LT Oil Leak-img_1645.jpg](https://blazerforum.com/forum/attachments/2nd-generation-s-series-1995-2005-tech-41/20111d1482430619t-1997-lt-oil-leak-img_1645.jpg)

from the pics it looks like the oil cooler lines could be the culprit. its a pressure leak so should be easy to spot with the vehicle running.
clean it off with brake and parts cleaner, or take it to the car wash bay. then run it and watch.

i checked inside the bellhousing it was bone dry so does that eliminate the rear main seal?
