Re: Small Block Normalcy (what should it be doing?)
What viscosity oil are you using? I have used heavier oil (DELO 15W-40 or even tried different brands of 20W-50) to slow down leaks in my older vehicles. You're in So-Cal, so you can probably get away with using heavier if you need it.
If you were in the northern US or Canada, I'd say only do that in the summer.
Next oil change put in the heavier stuff. See if it makes a difference with the oil pressure and leaks and noise.
