I've developed an oil leak on the left side of the engine. I've had
ample time to watch it while fiddling with my idle and the oil seems to
pool up on the sheet metal under the left pistons and drip from either
side where it meets the engine case. Seems to me this indicates that my
rocker cover gasket is bad so I'm planning to replace both of them.
However, it also occurs to me that I could be dead wrong, any other
cause of the leak I should be on the look out for?
Toadpipe
Push rod tubes or oil cooler? That's the only other things I can think of in
that area that could leak oil besides valve cover. Somebody chime in if they
is anything else.
