mandalore4411 Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 (edited) Hey maybe someone else has come across a similar oil leak. Red arrow points to the highest point I could trace the leak to. First guess I have is that it is coming from the oil pan seal. 87 gl-10 turbo auto Edited January 20, 2014 by mandalore4411 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverback Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Did you check the rocker cover, bottom side by the distributor? Difficult to see without using a mirror. Your oil pan is very clean and it appears the oil is squirting out above the pan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilesFox Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Considering the amount of oil on the frame and what appears to be running off of it, i would suggest the cam tower o-ring is blowing out oil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silverback Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Is the cam case o-ring on the forward end of the left head and the firewall end of the right head? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilesFox Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 yes, they are opposite, as the heads are cast the same, but on opposite sides of the motor face opposite directions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
