I'll almost guarantee its the valve cover gasket. All of my 4.0 powered jeeps have leaked from the valve cover and it looks just like it's coming from the rear main. Replace it with the good Fel-Pro gasket or some RTV and that should take care of it for the life of your engine.

Fel-pro makes one-piece pan gaskets that are top notch. I just got done doing this job on my '92, along with the rear main seal, oil filter adapter housing o-rings, and valve cover gasket.

Dry as a bone now.

To OP: I would also check the oil filter adapter for leaking. Very common. And if you do buy gaskets for the pan and valve cover, spend the extra money on the one piece Fe-Pro gaskets. They're worth every penny.

tips on pan gasket replacement:

  • Buy RTV that is designed for use with oil
  • Put RTV on the rear main cap to pan mating surface, the corners where the main cap and block meet, the corners up front on the timing cover, and the lower timing cover to pan mating surface. Also dab some RTV on each side of the pan rail in the middle of each side.
  • Put the gasket against the block and insert pan bolts close to each location you put RTV above and tighten hand tight
  • Let sit over night, or long enough that RTV will hold pan gasket in place while you wrestle the pan in place
  • Before installing pan, put more RTV in the same spots as above, but on the gasket surface this time.
  • Install pan without trying to wrestle everything in place and getting RTV everywhere except where it should be
