Oil leaking question

[Valiant]

I have a 6.2L 998 that was driving fine. My buddy was driving it one day and said it started to stall when he took his foot off the gas. Got it towed to my house, it starts but idles rough and dies out at low idle. I thought maybe bad fuel and cleaned out the filter, same thing.

There was no noticeable leak but I noticed the oil was very low so I let it run for a while and found it started leaking a lot when it got hot. Almost looks like it comes out of the little hole in the picture too. I also notices a couple bolts were missing.

Any suggestions/thought?

Looks like you need a rear main seal.

I'd go with that diagnosis, as it seems the Bellhousing drain has a bolt or plug? in it?.

Thanks for the input. Would that be consistent with cutting out at low idle or is that a separate issue? It didn't have any leaks before this happened.

I should also mention that it's a lot noisier and she's struggling when you hit the gas.

The cutting out is going to be fuel related. My guess is the sock on the end of your fuel pump has degraded and is blocking fuel flow.

Why do folks keep letting friends borrow and tear up their Humvees?

I do a fine job tearing mine up all by myself. No help needed.
