If it's the steering clutch control then there are lip type seals on the shafts but no boots like on the front of the old clutch booster controls.

Rome you are correct they must be lip seals on the steering clutches....

Good to hear from you! Those orings around the top of the chambers can go bad and look like oil but it is coolant, drain the coolant down and remove the chamber and clean the ring surface area on the head good, clean the prechamber if reusable, anti-seize the threads and oil the oring and around the head area, install bottom washer, torque chamber to 200 ft lbs. I dont know if you have the special tool to remove the chambers? Its the splined bolt type.
Good to here from you too! I do believe that it is oil as it is black and not coolant... I took a picture and need to really take off the hood to get in their properly.... I know it its not the head gasket just the oil is dripping from above and runs the length of the head and it appeared to be the head at first but it super wet on top... That is why I believe it is the pre-cup or pre-chamber....Any suggestions would help with what you guys might be thinking... I know the pre-cups have o rings and I was thinking only coolant as the cups are surrounded by coolant... Let me know your thoughts...

Unless the rocker box gasket has a bad leak right by the prechamber. I would steam clean it then run it some more and recheck it.

Leaking on top of the head around #3, I would bet a rocker box gasket, decompression shaft seal (between the 2 boxes) or even a crack in a rocker box near the seal area.

I will bet you are correct... It seems it cannot be the pre-chamber as from what I have read is only the coolant...

Any idea on Part number for the lip type seals on the steering clutch control???
The oil leak was the rocker boxes gasket for 123. I ordered all the parts for the old girl and am planning on doing both not just the ones leaking.... I am going to need to fix the steering clutch control leak as she is leaking pretty good through those seals...
Lastly, The ripper all 4 actuator seals need to be repacked... Then she should be good for a minute until a hose bursts.... LOL.... Oh the joys of owning an old girl that needs attention... She is strong though and my god can you do a ton of work in a short amount of time....
Stay safe.....

By the looks of the fuel coming out of the injectors I would think that your rack is stuck. Friend of mine had a 9 and when he would start it would go to full throttle. I had to loosen the rack up with penetrating oil and it would run right. You may be flooding the engine with too much fuel. Have you taken the injection valves out and tested them? They may be the problem. Hopes this helps, Larry.
