Sounds like the common oil cooler seals , or the pipe at the back of the engine leaking that Craig mentioned on here a while back. |

It’s the oil cooler itself that cracks I believe. Just doing seals won’t be enough....the oil rings on the pipes that can also be an issue shouldn’t let that much oil out......

If you have just had the cooler seals done then I would be looking at the 2 orings at the back of the engine. Easy fix for next to no money. Craig has a thread on it. The orings are readily available on the net and upgraded viton rings are recommended!
