hi there guys
anyone have any ideas where this leak is coming from, it is mostly on the L/H side of the engine (looking from the nose), and seems to be highish up, could it be a oil pump gasket (does this have a seperate gasket, realoem doesn't list one) the wife is giving me grief for the oil stains on the driveway haha, i say that its keeping the steering links lubricated, and the underside of the car rust free!!
thanks any help would be greatly appreciated

yeah, thanks for that!,
already cleaned and looked for it, its a slow leak/seep, so have to run it for a while to get any noticable oil out, but by that time its sprayed everywhere, just wondering if anyone else has chased a similar leak and finaly pinpointed it to a componant, fixed it, and are all smiles now
