Question Which oil leak detector?

Just wondering what brand name I need to get. Trying to pin point an oil leak.

Huh??? Do you put that in your oil so it changes the oil color to make the leak more noticeable? Never heard of it.

a flouresent dye maybe?

any will work, if it needs a blacklight, make sure you have one

but if you clean the engine off good, then run it, you should be able to see the leak without the dye
