The search for oil tightness
#10
If you fitted a new silicone gasket (completely dry) and a leak still occurred then I would suggest the block to crankcase gasket is the cause. I have zero leaks after 5k with silicone gasket and original tapper cover.

Do check that the cover is sitting clear of the manifold and crankcase - if held up on these it will never seal.

Leak at the bottom rear indicates that your rearmost block stud may be loose. Tighten it, and others, with extreme caution!
