can someone give me some (real) help?

my 73 camaro 350TH won't quit leaking. took it down twice now and did
what several ppl has told me to do. i was told i was over tightening it.
i've tryed lose, tight, and tighter and tighened it evenly. they said do
not use gasket adhesive's, i've did it with out them. i was told to
check that the pan wasn't bent, its stright as an arrow. i did just like
the flter and gasket kit said to do (even retightened a lil' after
warming up) and still leaking.
does anyone have a cure for this at all? i mean something that WILL
work?
i have had a few chevys in my time that had this problem and to me it
was one of chevys worst falts in there car making.

thx... bow

Hi:

Can you be a little more specific as in where the leak area is, as in: in
front of the pan, on the left side, right front of the pan, center front of
the pan?

Then we can guide you a little better.

I hope this helps?

Sounds like:

The fluid is either blowing out of the breather, or the dipstick tube seal.

A more definitive search, would lead you to the exact leak point.
