I know this is an old post, so I was wondering if you had resolved the issue as I have a '78 cb750k with the exact same leak; although mine is not quite as severe as yours.  It's a much slower leak, and I'm still able to ride the bike;  I just end up with some oil splash on my lower pant leg, probably every 3rd or 4th time I ride, and it happens much more on high way travel.  I've had a few people look at it and tell me it's at least a 6 hour job, and I obviously won't know the exact cause of the leak until I get down in to the gasket.  I'm just wondering how you resolved the issue, and how much time, parts, etc. it took for you to fix it?

many thanks
