[T3] oils leakage


what is the most likely place for an oil leak from the 
engine, excluding the strainer cover. i have quite a bit 
of oil coming from the tins and out onto the ground. i 
would say that it might be a quart a month or so. i am 
thinking pushrod seals, or pushrods. do i have to remove 
the heads in order to change them? or should i just buy 
some of those spring loaded ones, if they are good. 
assuming this is the most likely cause of the leak, it 
also appears that the oil filler neck is leaking right 
at the block. i have seen that there is a tool to aid in 
re-bolting this item back in once you replace the seal. 
is it imperative or can i just measure and bolt it back 
up best i can? thanks
