Default Oil leak

Just had the oilpan gaket replaced because it was leaking at the front. Now it is leaking at the back where the pan and bellhousing are mated. Are these things just going to leak? What can be done?

Mine doesn't leak a drop with a new oem gasket. There was a TSB that recommended applying RTV to the heads of the 2 bolts in the recessed holes towards the rear of the pan to prevent leaks in that area. Also a good idea to use RTV on the gasket itself, at least in the areas shown in the RAVE if not the entire surface.

It is possible that it's not your gasket leaking and rather your rear main seal.
