Run your hand across the back of the intake. LT1's are common for having oil leaks there. I can take a look at it Sunday when we scan the codes.

On the LT1s, the oil pressure sending unit is right behind the intake. During a trans R&R, if you let the trans hang down too far you can damage the oil pressure sending unit by it getting forced up against the firewall pretty hard.

If you have a 94 the sensor will be above the oil filter, not behind the intake.

used to do "intake parties" on the LT1's for the rear oil leak.
be careful which radiator hose goes where, just below the cap: one is for reservoir, one is return line from Throttle Body. it makes a mess when you swap them ....ask me how i know...
