I already fixed the intake leak this winter and now I am leaking oil again but from the front of the engine now. What are the most likely causes of this leak? It is mostly wet around the crank but has splashed all around the bottom front.

 

I have the same problem and was also wondering.

 

waterpump seal or the opti seal on the front cover.

 

Timing cover, i have the same thing


its a bitch to get the cover on right.


DAM OIL PAN GASKET

 

I got the same problem
but I don't think it leaks enough to fix it, it's very very minor

 

Clean up the area and then check it regularly, so that you can determine just what is leaking.

 

I've used dye that is added to the oil and used with a black light. You can see the opti and crank areas fairly easy. The waterpump seal is tough to see but is a likely candidate if you've replaced the timing cover.
