coling Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Hi A friend of mine has aquired a 1929 Phaeton 6 cyl 3.1 litre After a run a considerable amount of oil drips from the bell housing, is it engine seal or gearbox related? If it is the engine oil seal can anyone recommend a supplier. coling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloo Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 It most likely does not use seals at all on the rear of the engine or the front of the transmission, it is too old for that. I would ask over here: https://vccachat.org/ The engine probably uses some kind of arrangement with a slinger, a tube, and a check ball. The transmission probably uses a spiral groove on the input shaft, and a drain hole through the front gasket back into the transmission. Those guys will know for sure where to look, and probably how to fix it when you figure out what is leaking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
