Just installed new head gasket (MLS) on 1999 Canadian Voyager 2.4L using all Mopar stuff included in TSB "no. 09-05-98". After running engine 3 different times for 15-20 minutes notice rear of engine (exhaust manifold side) leaking oil still. After close examination oil is not coming from head/block seam in rear but engine oil is actually dripping from 3 and possibly all 4 of the lower exhaust manifold bolts. I did not remove lower intake or exhaust manifold as head may be lifted w/o their removal. Could this be a birth defect with this motor (threaded holes to close to oil gallery) or could the head be cracked in some peculiar way???? No oil is leaking above exhaust manifold.
