oil out of back of engine onto hot pipes why from where
1 Answer

Sounds like either a rear main seal, external head gasket leak, or valve cover gaskets causing the oil on your exhaust pipes. The thunk on acceleration is probably U-joints since the Corvette is rear-wheel drive. Have the U-joints checked for play before suspecting the transmission.
