"I have battled this problem and cannot figure it out. Oil drips down bell housing into bilge. I replaced oil pan gasket and rear main bearing flange gasket. I examined the felt seal, but decided not to replace it. Is it possible that the felt seal would allow that much oil to drip? I'm talking about over a quart during a half day outing! I can't see any other place for oil to escape. Is this a common problem? Thanks for any input!"

If its coming from the bellhousing isn't it likely coming from thru the outdrive bearing?
