Default RMS leak?

I have an oil leak b/w the bottom of tranny and bottom of engine connection. What else could cause this leak besides the RMS? Should I just get an OEM replacement? Clutch seems to slip a tiny bit, could this be the culprit?

Thanks,

Tim, seems like RMS to me.

There are some defective batches out there that will cause this, replace it with the OEM (new versions apparently) and no more leaks.

If you are unable to trace where it is coming from and your clutch is slipping, most likely it is.
How are those suspension settings working out?

Jean,

I'll try removing the tranny this weekend and see.

The shop I took the car to screwed everything up and the car handled very bad. I am looking right now for a good shop that understands our cars so I can get the problem resolved. I called afterwards and asked about the kinematic toe. Their response was "what is kinematic toe". No wonder everytrhing is screwed up!! I doubt any of the measurements I gave them are actually adjusted into the suspension!! As soon as Bob Brooks gets the kinemati toe tools for sale I will start doing the adjustments myself!!
