Post subject:  Push Rod Leak

I have a pretty good oil leak and it seems to be coming from the case side of one of my push rods. Any suggestions on just replacing a seal or going with new rods etc... if so ... what type? I have heard that stock ones work as good as fancy after market ones (which appears to be what I have). And also what am I going to be looking at to get back up and running? Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

2.00 per tube. use the solid ones they don't leak. you can get them cheaper but the link just shows you what they are.

tear the head off, replace the tube and seals, put head back on, adjust valves, go ride. should be about a hour job. you can do it with the motor in the car.
