I'm planning to really start tackling some of my oil leaks tomorrow. I was under there tonight and the pushrod tubes are leaking (used the crappy seals when I changed them over the winter), along with the taco plate (I have one, easy fix).
What is bothering me is that there are drop of oil on the head fins and oil tins under them on both sides of the car. Its not in a place where oil would blowback from the pushrod tube seals, and my head vent hoses up top are not leaking either. Can you guys tell me where the source of oil for a leak like this could be? Cant find anything in the search. Thanks |

Maybe your're right. If was something more serious, it probably would be happening on both sides of the engine. But I know the pushrod tubes are leaking on both sides.
