It's a commercial property and no storm drains are nearby if that makes a difference. Used about 100lbs of that oil-dry or wtvr it's called right after anyway.
Sounds like you handled it properly, those "little" messes can escalate quickly if the authorities are made aware of them.

He said his buddy was tampering with drain valves right before they started it. I suspect he'll find one open...
I missed that I guess.

Easy fix then.

Thanks, I was quickly scanning thru the posts and I was expecting the creator of the thread to come back and update us in the leak since so many offers advise. I guess I was over thinking things. I'll need to read it more carefully next time.
sorry holidays,wife and work kept me busy. As of today truck is back up and running. Ended up having a former m923 mechanic take a look at it and yes one of the valves was opened apparently. Today He tightened everything before attempting start which took forever because the emergency fuel cut off I pushed apparently sticks even when pushed in. Once it started ran awesome and no oil leaks! Next time he'll help with the various fluid changes.
