She is broken in and pinging as well as leaking oil. 2 leaks, one from the rear is dripping from the bellhousing passenger side bolt (rear main seal?) the other looks like the center front of the motor, looks like it's coming from the front diff but it's motor oil. From what I've read the rear is either the valve cover or rear main seal. I don't know about the front. Maybe the oil filter adapter. I've read these are common? Suggestions?

wash the engine with a degreaser, and make sure to get the back up top around the valve cover gasket. then run the engine for about half an hour, and take a clean rag and wipe in a few places, escpecially around the rear of the valve cover gasket, and try to find where the oil is coming from. if the rear main seal was leaking, it should come out the bottom of the bellhousing, but am i reading this right that its coming from the passenger side by the starter? sounds more like valve cover. and for the front, could be valve cover, front main, timing cover or even valve cover. good luck!
