Alright Excursion brothers I noticed a little oil in the Garage so I took it in and it looks like a rear seal leak. Is this common @ 60K miles (7.3 PS)?
Also is there anything that would have caused this?
Is there anything i need to look out for when I take this in for repair next week?
Thanks

It is a rare occassion when the rear seal leaks, not to say that it does not occur. However I would encourage you to check a more common leak in the intake valley, grab a flash light look and see if there is any oil in the valley between the heads. If this is the case you my have a High pressure oil leak whether it is a pump, a pressure line or an O-ring the oil will accumulate in the valley and run down the back of the block , giving the impression of a rear main leak.
