oil leak
there really isn't a spot for this so i'm putting it here. i've got an oil leak that appears to be coming from between the tranny and the block. i've looked all over that thing and its the only source i can find where theres oi which appears to be coming from the backside of the tranny seal. has anyone encountered this before?
i have a 1997 accord lx with the f22b2. i'm not sure on how to fix this. i've been running mobil 1 full synth 0w40 and i'm heading to the store to buy a 10w30/40 hoping it'll be thick enough to slow the leak. i did some googling and searching and was lead to it possibly being the rear main seal which involves pulling the tranny, not a cheap fix.
i've never pulled my engine or tranny i've got limited tools and only my self paced knowledge of this which ranks around amateur. anyone have any ideas?

Then we can head over to jeffciv23's house and have a bbq.
