I do not recall an O ring on the tach cable nut. I will look at mine and report back within 24 hours.It seems to me the source of that much oil should be readily identified.Is there any possibility the main oil seal in the timing cover is faulty? Or the cone nipple seal on the oil pump out port? It seems to me there is no way that much oil can be getting out with the normal splash in the timing cover.SlickPS. If either of these seals are faulty, you should not run the engine as it may be starved for oil.
