[QUOTE="Relaxed Chaos, post: 10729309, member: 64993"] Ok, so after more cleaning and driving, and cleaning and looking I discovered that my oil leak is coming from this timing cover bolt, which is the lowest timing cover bolt by the AC compressor. The black plate in the pic is the front of the oil pan. [IMG]http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5184/5738856498_b9e2c6a580_b.jpg[/IMG] WTF is up with that? From all the oily goo around I'd say it has been leaking for quite some time. There are 45K miles on the car. It appears oil is leaking past the inner gasket surface and down the threads and past the nut. From the looks of it that is a nut on a stud, right, not some special fastener? So, I bought some high temp thread sealer and I've loosened up the bracket enough to get a wrench on that nut, only to find that my 18mm wrench is gone missing. I'll have to pick one up tomorrow and try to find some time this weekend to get that nut off far enough to get some thread sealer on the threads. [/QUOTE]
