Since it's a 3.25 main block, check to see if the anti-rotation holes were properly prepared if using a viton seal.

Often overlooked. On the 3.25" cranks the anti-rotation slots in the block MUST be filled in.
I agree with others, at this point take the pan off and the rear main cap. Everything needs to be inspected.
Here's a great video from John (VVGarage) that is prudent.
