97 5.0 EGR line question

[Mitchs07explorer]

Cool, more time and patience, a little luck, tongue sticking out like Jordan, easy. Now drive it and hopefully you can't find anything else it needs. Turn the radio on high, and it doesn't have any squeaks or rattles.

I'm pretty much wrapped up as far as the engine goes. I added the oil while on my break too, I'll be able to see if i caused any more leaking or if it stays about the same. I just need to put the fan back on and add coolant and she'll be good to fire up. I suppose it was a good thing that I didn't immediately see a stream of oil coming from the front of the pan after doing the timing chain haha. I still might try the oil pan gasket trick we discussed if the leak really annoys me or if I inadvertently made it worse through my tinkering. I'll keep you posted if I go ahead with that I still think that idea could work well. Otherwise I might just set up a catch and route the dripping oil away from the exhaust.
