So I can't figure out where my new oil leak is comming from. Fair size leak is wetting down the rubber tube that cools altenator and some more on the outside edge of the cylinder. drops onto my engine mount bar.

ain't nothing on top of the tin. The gasket at the oil fill box and breather is dry. Under side of tin is dry.

Could I be leaking at the inside of the head where the head bolt goes through?

did you remove the thermostat on your engine?
if so, check the bolt that usually holds the little plastic wheel, the thread goes through inside the motor!

if not used, you must plugg it, if used check for leaks there ...
