If it's leaking from a split or rupture and not the sides of the gasket just patch it with some JB weld lol.

If you remove the engine mount bolt under the intake manifold, you can jack up the engine enough to lower the sump. The jack should be placed under the bellhousing. Worst part of it is undoing the sump bolts above the K frame.

After doing the sump gasket this way, I reckon I'll remove the engine next time. It's much easier. :D
