If you just do the "outside" gaskets (valve covers, oil pan, front cover, etc) not too long. The motor doesn't even need to come all the way out for those, just high enough to get the oil pan off. Since you'll be having a beer or two, and will get mad at the car at least twice, figure a couple of hours total work time, plus an hour to chill in between thrown wrenches. LOL!

Drop the tranny and its right there. I've had just about every gasket leak oil that can possibly leak oil on my fox. Got all fixed but one and now I just don't care. It doesn't leak enough to matter, when I finally build a new motor for the car my oil leak problems will be gone.
