68 390 into a 63 f250

I need info and imput on practicality, links, everything you all got.

I have a 68 f250 2wd auto (c-6) with a 390. The motor was rebuilt many many years ago (but only about 55K miles), runs very strong, and has great oil pressure. The problem I have with this motor is that it leaks oil from the rear main seal. Not alot, if I park it I will find a lil puddle waiting for me when I return. I've been told this leaking problem is "uncurable" with FE's. Is there a remedy?

Next problem is I just bought a 63 f250 4x4 4 spd with a y-block motor. I am sure y-block motors are...OK...but I have had the FE for a while, its nicely built, and runs like a top. What would be involved in transplanting my FE into my 63 f250 4x4?

and lastly....I am having a hell of a time getting technical info on my 63 f250 4x4. If anyone know a link or two or three it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you all very much in advance.
