Agree with 78F350. The rubber seal was leaking on the AOS on my LE and created a messy leak that looked like RMS.

If the clutch is good and you have a 99 with a "reliable" dual row IMS, it sucks to spend all that money to change a cheap RMS. Maybe do it in chunks - change the spark plug tubes and AOS, then go from there. If the leak stops, then save up for a clutch job in a yr or two.

Or throw a wad of $$$ at it and have a tip top engine and a happy mechanic.
