What should i do? Options

[caribou17]

Well i got underneath my car today because i know i have an oil leak, I took my skid plate off and it was pretty obvious where most of the oil is. My questions are,,,Does it look like the oil is coming from the timing belt cover? If it is, is it just a seal i need to replace? And the most important question,,,Can my engine remain inside the engine bay to do this?






What are these lines???

I'm not sure where on the car you're at but those could be parking brake cables.

Take the timing cover loose and look inside for oil, very common for cam seals, crank seals, and especially oil pump seals to leak.

Looks like shift cables.

To get to that leak...may have to remove or atleast raise the engine, vice versa...raise car lower engine. Hard place to get too, and alot involved there. Can't say for sure, because I'm working on that area now with my engine, and it is certainly out of the car on a stand.

But I don't think if you take it to a shop they take it completely out.

I would say some seals around the oil pump are leaking.
