D&HFORDTRACTORS

Hey guys I'm new to the forum and have a question. I have a 1957 Ford 861 gas tractor that has pressurized oil coming out of the hole behind the coil , there should be no oil there also when I start it it takes about 15 seconds for the oil pressure to build to 40 psi. I have cleaned all the breathers and checked the oil level all is good. I have seven of these era Ford tractors all have this hole, and all get used regularly for field mowing of which i do about 150 fields a year so they all get run hard but this one just started leaking the other day. im going to a drop the oil pan and check check for sludge and maby run some carosene through it see if it helps. Hoping somebody made might have an idea thanks
