    No idea where the oil leaks from nickle in the block comes from. Leaks come from porous castings and poorly machined surfaces along with damaged tins and over tightened gaskets. I know of plenty of leak free 351 Cleveland and Windsor 351 builds.

    Well might have been the fact too with after market parts it's easier to remedy these days too.
