Ted,

You can drop the oil pan and check there for chrome flakes.

Hey guys. About 100 miles ago I replaced my rear main seal and yesterday I
noticed it was leaking again, while just sitting in the garage. This scares
me because I am thinking one of my cylinders may have flaking chrome which
is grinding on the seal. Is there an easy way to see if chrome is in the oil
or should I just pull the heads?
