    Leaking oil from fuel pump and fuel getting into my oil

    Hi all,

    This is my first post and I have a 1957 M38a1. I am trying to figure out how i am getting fuel into my oil, and why there is oil leaking from my fuel pump. My fuel pump is the original dual action and is missing the priming lever. My carb is also original but was rebuilt recently. I think a sticking float could cause gas to get into the oil, but the leaking fuel pump keeps making me wonder.

    I also am having a leak on the block out of a circular port near the fuel pump (and plumbed to the fuel pump). Im not sure what this part is either.

    Also, What oil pressure is standard? Mine gets really low (only 5-10psi at idle when warm...)

    Thanks in advance! Any help is appreciated.

    Emmett
