I just bought my first Toyota and so far its been great picked it for 1200 and its got 230k on it. It runs great shifts smooth no grinds or nothing. My problem is I got a oil leak somewhere on the passenger side. I did the value cover gasket as that was leaking too. But I can't seem to pin point the other leak. Its not from the pan. Is there an oil pump or something else on the passenger side that is prone to leaks? Sorry for the noob question but I'm used to focuses. I know them inside and out. So any help on this would be great thanks.

If you have a 5sfe it's probably the oil pump seals. This engine is known for oil pump leaks. You will need an oil pump shaft seal, crank seal and oil pump housing seal. You should be able to pick these items up for $20-$25. Also think about changing your timing belt and water pump at the same time since your right there. Do a search in the engine section for oil pump seal.
