Have been working on a Long 510 for the past couple of months. Replaced fuel pump, filters and one filter base. Had a hard time getting the air bled out of the fuel system and used starting fluid to finally get it running. All seemed well and it ran good then I noticed oil coming from around the fuel pump and from what I can only describe as something that looks similar to a "hoagie bun" with a tube that goes to the bottom of the tractor. Pretty severe leaks. I also noticed what appeared to be anti-freeze leaking from around one bolt that was threaded into the engine.

Any idea what has happened? Still runs good but leaking oil like crazy. How much do you put in an old tractor before you say uncle? Need it but can't afford to replace it now.

Posting a picture might help others to identify the problem.
