You can always try Auto-rx. There quite few people on Bob is the oil guy website that were successful stopping the rear main seal leak.

Pianoman72,
Yes I used Auto-rx in my 95 SC400, because every time I put 1000-1500 miles on new oil it looked very dark. I figured I had a lot of build up inside the engine. Last time I checked the oil, after using Auto-Rx, at 1800 it was still clean.
Also, I use Lucas UCL (Upper Cylinder Lubricant) as the other product that was highly recommended by the Bob is the oil guy website.

Guys nothing going to stop unless you change the rear main seal. There is a ring insid your rear main seal. Once it's doesn't hold anymore, there goes your oil.

That Auto-RX will stop the leak. I had several friends who went back to the States and notice their Lexus or Toyota sprung a leak (likely due to pressure change from the altitude). Rather than taking it to the dealer, they tried Auto-RX and it worked like a charm.
