i have an engine block oil leak, on a 1198 pontiac sunfire 2.2 4 cyl. with
around 240k miles on it.. is there an additive out there for engine oil to
create a gasket to repair a leak in the block on the oil side. the only
repair additives that i can find is for coolant side of engine block.

i have used the lucas oil stabilizer it seems to slow the usage but i am
still having to check the oil @ least once a wk. too many miles to change the
head gasket. i am not getting oil in antifreeze or vica versa. any
suggestions. i am remember seeing some type of pellets to add to engine in a
jc whitney catalog but i dont see it any more. i have used several other
additives they seem to help a little but not as much as i would like.

no sir there isnt oil stopleak.there are oil additives like stp that
thicken the oil and may slow a leak, or additives that claim to
condition oil seals to slow leaks,but the  only sure way is find and to
repair the leak. i do know a bad pcv valve can cause pressure in the
engine and leak more..
