Hey guys, I got an oil leak. Its coming from the timing belt area. The gasket from the bottom timing belt cover is stilling out like an ear. There's no oil there in that section though right? its kinda weird, and I don't know a whole lot yet but any advice? the pictures below. Thanks!

it could also be the half moon on the valve cover gasket, did you seal it?

I'm still learning a lot. thnx QUOTE (luka @ Mar 22, 2009 - 11:15 PM) i can come by and take a look also if your still having issues next weekend. Thanks. I'm so surprised I have so many people helping. I'll let you know. Where do you live? QUOTE (Bigblock @ Mar 23, 2009 - 10:01 PM) what about getting a dye additive kit for engineoil @ napa,autozone,or going to a shop & ask the what it would cost to add the dye & check it in a day or so? friend of mine doesnt charge for doing it. the dye can be seen with utraviolet light or special glasses. he uses it to look for leaks in hard-to-see areas. Haven't try that yet. I'll keep that in mind though. Thanx. QUOTE (Bitter @ Mar 22, 2009 - 11:00 AM) cam shaft seal or oil pump seal will leak when engine is running. It sounds like the oil pump seal, but i'm not for sure yet. QUOTE (Bitter @ Mar 22, 2009 - 11:00 AM) cam shaft seal or oil pump seal will leak when engine is running.
