thats what I did exactly, I realized it will only leak a certain amount only after the car has warmed up. After that it appears to stop leaking.
I don't see how it could be the cam shaft seal, the leak appears to be from the front of the block (near the bumper more rather than the firewall). But i'll definitly look for oil near it.
just waiting for the weather to lighten up so I can lift the car!!!
are those the long places that are 90% of the time where the oil leak is from? any other common ones?
