fired up the 440 ,ran at 2100 rpm, sounded real good. about 15 min. into the breakin noticed a fine stream of oil coming out of the back of engine,shut it down. something simple that was missed on assembly? or does it have to come back out? aarrgghhh.
 
Sorry but you better pull it and put it together right. Check cam and lifter gallery plugs.
 
MAYBE loose plug/s at rear top of block to rear of intake? Or oil sender itself leaking? Easy stuff to check first anyway.
