I have no clue how there can be an oil leak from between the housings down by the exhaust. There is no oil that passes anywhere near there. It's all coolant. the only oil near there is in the pan and the only oil leaks that I know of near there are also from the pan. I wonder what they are looking at?

I am still waiting for a motor to come in.

I still can not get an answer as to if the motor
they going to put in is a new or reman. motor.

Would the paperwork have to say reman. ?
Done anyone know for sure what they are
putting in our cars?

I know it sucks to have a "Neon" and "no one cares about you now"

but I think I would rather wait a little for a brand new engine.

At least hey, you have another 27,000 miles for free (new engine). so why not?

Oil leaks between the rotor housings.During assembly as the hosings are put together a sealant is used on the bottom legs,the parts that the oil pan bolts to.Also it can leak from the ;ower dowel pin seals.
