    I have finished replacing upper and lower manifold gaskets but oil still leaks from the engine somewhere. I’m wondering if aftermarket gaskets were not good enough, but heard the seal take when we replaced them. Does anybody have any suggestions are gone through anything similar?

    It was completely stopped for a time, but it is leaking again, although not as bad not great either. Thinking about doing it again but using copper coat this time, but first checking the oil filter is not the cause of this leak this time
