you may never get it completely dry just liveable ,did you ensure seal was central and tightened evenly , if you remove sump clean faces thoroughly with brake clean etc and ensure rear main bearing cap joints are well covered with decent rtv silicone sealant

Yer It's all lined up and tight and used sealant with gaskets as I said its only a drip so I could live with that lol but gonna do sump in morning I will let you know if I sort it
