  I have a bad fuel/exhaust leak on my YS 1.60.  It started just before my
NMP header split but continued after replacing with
  a Hatori header and 821 muffler.  I'm getting pretty desperate trying to
find it.  I have replaced all the fuel lines.  I have snugged up
  the flange that screws in to the head.  I have retightened the header
flange.  I have checked the valve cover gasket.  I have checked
  the head bolts but it still leaks.  I consider the leak bad enough that if
I don't get it fixed by tomorrow I will have to miss my second contest in a
row because of it.  It really soaks the inside of the engine compartment on
the left (exhause) side.  Bad enough that when I run my finger down the
firewall it is wet with oil.  The engine mount beams on the bottom sides are
almost dripping.
  Any thoughts?
  Thanks!
  JLK
