This is from the Clymer Publications Corvette Handbook, covers 1955 to 1962.
"Install 3 extension and retainer to case attaching bolts (torque to 35 to 45 foot-pounds) and 2 extension retainer attaching bolts (torque to 20 to 30 foot-pounds). Use suitable sealer on the lower right attaching bolt as viewed from rear". (this is the bolt that almost lines up on a horizontal line with the drain plug).
Couldn't find a torque spec in the ST-12.
Hope this helps.

Perfect. Thanks so much Ron.Especially the part about using sealer. I think maybe that is where I have a slight seepage.
