I’m looking into hatching a splash leghorn. If I cross a leghorn and a black sex link male, will the females at least be a leghorn splash?
 
No, a white bird crossed with a Barred bird will not give you splash babies. Are you wanting a splash bird to lay a white egg? Andalusians have a splash variety and they lay white eggs.

That was my first reaction and was about to suggest that he looked for California Whites(Heterozygous White breed) for color reference(All White with very few specks of white)... But I don't see on any of his post that he has a White Leghorn, perhaps he has a Splash Leghorn hen already?
 
Confusing post with to many unknowns.
I'm not following exactly what's being asked. Is there a splash leghorn involved or just hoping to hatch one? What color leghorn? What was used for the sex link? Black Xs barred?
You won't get a leghorn from crossing a leghorn to a sex link unless the sex link was made by crossing two leghorns.
You won't have a chance for a splash unless both parents are blue, both splash or one blue and one splash.
From how I'm reading it you have no chance for a splash or leghorn chick.
