Tiny oil leak, nothing more.
 

Hey guys I can't get rid of an oil leak after checking all connections. The leak is at the oil pan and drain fitting. I've dropped the turbo headers and oil pan twice now and to be honest i'm not dropping it a third time.

I'm planning on installing a new, completely different AN fitting but i'm not sure what the thread on the Full Blown oil pans return is.

If you guys have any suggestions or ideas I'm completely open. I rather not replace. The oil leak is super tiny but it does dip time to time on the headers and makes a tiny poof of smoke.

Again the leak is from the return fitting and the oil pan. The picture below is the pan and the fitting i'm talking about is at the very top of the picture.

Any pipe threads have a sealant like Loctite 567 and not crappy plumbers Teflon tape? It's not a Cam plate leak and definitely at the sump? AN fittings have no sealant at all and are only nipped, otherwise they will Gall and not seal. Those are my suggestions without actual pics. Hope it helps in some way.

Teflon tape yellow. Never had a problem in the past with my turbo Busa or anything but I'm going to give Permatex Ultra Black a go. If this doesn't fix it I'm half minded to weld the fitting on amd be done with it.

I would like to say i'm an ass hat and after doing a tear down I found the -10AN fitting on the turbo side was lose as ____. The oil must of ran down the sleeved line to the oil pan fitting. Not a lot but enough.

I would like to shoot myself in the foot over and over. Someone delete this thread so I never have to think of this again.

Just to add to this. No Teflon tape or sealant on -AN fittings. Only on pipe fittings.
