I finally got my engine running like a beast, and I get a damn oil leak that drips like a faucet as soon as I start the car!!!!! I've removed and reinstalled, retapped a hole where I am prettty sure the oil is leaking from, and its STILL LEAKING FROM THAT AREA. I'm starting to think the leak is above the bolt hole, but the oil finds the lowest spot to cling on to as it drips so it seems like its seeping out of a bolt hole. The following image shows where the leak is coming from.

The two arrows show the same leak, just to better describe the location of the leak. The oil drips from the bolt in that spot like a faucet. Also, I dont have item 8 (that cover you see the second arrow going through), the kid fixing my car lost it in wisconsin. Please help! Could the leak be originating some place else? If it can be concluded that the leak is in that spot, ill just JB weld it. but I need to be sure. also, that hole was originally stripped in the BLOCK, I retapped it.
