<VV> Oil pump external leak late model

[jryall@juno.com]

I found a reference by lclc from years ago.  If he says it works, it
works!!  BTW, he wrote the words, I provided the capitol letters ;~)

Rear housing oil leaks
I find most leaks in the rear housing are from the oil pump idler shaft.
Oil will start to run out the top of the shaft where it is pressed into
the rear housing; only happens when the engine (and oil) is good and
warm, so it's a little tricky to catch. The fix is to knock the shaft out
and reinstall it with Locktite. Larry Claypool
