So lately my 5S has been steadily leaking oil. I've located the majority of the leak coming from the lower corner of the timing case where there is a seal hanging there. The other bit I believe is coming from the oil pan. So i'm gonna start with replacing the t-belt and water pump and cam and crank seals. But I have never done a t-belt replacement before so I need some help. Is there a how-to post for this somewhere? Or can anyone give me some helpful advice and what tools to use and parts to replace while doing this and what all needs to be removed?? Thanks!

I used this guide when I did mine and it was really helpful. Just make sure to mark everything before you take the belt off, unlike me lol. If you don't you'll have to line up the tiny notch on the crank and the notch in the hole on the cam sprocket. Although I did mine while the engine was out of the car so it was quite a bit easier.
