ok so i havent searched yet, i plan on doing that next i jsut need a quick answer, im getting an oil drip from the front of the motor just behind the crank pulley. now from my experience with muscle cars its telling me its the main seal that sits around the crank, it looks like its been leakin for some time but just now got realllly bad. a friend suggested it might be the oil releif valve, but idk if our cars have this or not lol. any help be awesome as to where to start looking besides ripping the crank pulley off and all that as im already doin that lol, oh yea its a 91 se ka24de

It's the front main seal. The oil bypass goes back into the pan.
