Seems it is the retainer that mounts onto the engine carrier part #025 199
221 A that is collecting the drips.. Thanks, Michael.

 91Gl AT with same slow leak.  Checked valve covers and they are dry.
Checked cooler seal and good.  I am getting oil in the mount right under and
to the left of the oil pump, right side is dry.  Seems it then dribbles down
the cooler or the pump housing and across the ?(black tubular cross mount
right behind the oil pump housing) leaving a straight line drip of oil left
to right on the ground at the rear of the engine. --All left/right,
front/back if you are standing at back of van and looking down.
Per the ETKA, might be the housing gasket or the oil pump gasket  ????  How
hard to check? Thanks all.
