Oil Leak

Well, I have to say I am very surprised. There was oil in the valley but they cleaned that all out and could not find it leaking anywhere on top, turbo pedestal, HPOP, or anything. The transmission bolts were loose, really loose, so they tightened them all up, and let it run for a hour and a half, and not a drop of oil. They said the tranny was flexing and causing the main to squirt out oil. That is their theory, and I dont have anything better. All I can say is that it is not leaking oil now and that is a good thing. I am going to keep a close eye on it and the valley of the engine is clean and dry so I will be able to spot any leak up there. Thanks for all your help and ideas, it all helped.
