since ive owned the Z, it has been a little leaky. in fact, you could tell every place ive ever parked. so i got underneath it today and found that there is a very small hole in the transmission right where it bolts up to the engine. it appears to have been broken by something. nevermind how it got there, how do i fix this. this is probably going to be one of those jobs that is jimmy rigged but works. i am leaving for chicago at 3 tomorrow and i have to be at work by 7am, so it needs to be fairly quick. is there some sort of metal epoxy or something that i can seal it with? c'mon guys i know you can do it. let me know. thanks.

turns out that hole is a seap hole of some sort and is intentional. i talked to some Z guys on another site and from the symptoms, it sounds like the rear main seal is leaking. anyone know/estimate how much this would cost to fix? and how long it would take?
as of now, its not burning or doing anything bad, just leaking, so im going to just check the oil a lot and fill it up when its needed. but i go on vacation the first week in august so i need it fixed by then. how long would it take slopny's to do this? thanks. some of the local shops around here take forever to do anything and i dont have forever to get it done, so thats why im leanin toward slopny if possible. let me know, thanks. -------------------- 2001 Chevy Silverado ext. cab 4x4
