I recently installed the S&S 509 gear drive cam set on my 2002 Deuce (88b). Ever since the new cams have been in i've had a small leak on the rear cyl oozing out from where the push rod covers go into the tappet block. i've taken them off and re seated them and even replaced the rings inside the tappet block, but I still get some oozing and weeping coming out around the top of the block where the push rod cover meets.

Is there anything else any one knows of I can do to stop this?

These are the original push rods, I can't afford the adjustable pushrods right now.

Any help would be appropriated oil leaks annoy me, and I didn't have this leak before the cams went in. and also front cyl is not leaking at all.

 

Possible the bottom of the tube has gotten 'out of round' or damaged and not seating completely against the o-ring. Pop off the clip, lift up the lower tube and rotate it slowly while inspecting. Also, double check that the correct o-ring is in place. Hope you get it worked out.
