Found where the oil has been leaking from

Plus I am really afraid because it looked as if maybe a little dex-cool may have a very small leak which makes me wonder if its my upper manifold gasket
 


Thank you I just was really hoping this thing would last I think O will get it in asap oh an btw I live near glassboro nj
 
clean that mess up like i said in post 3, go from there, your a oily mess all over, could be any of the things i mentioned. you'll never tell for sure with it all dirty like that.

if you have oil dripping off the back of the trans pan, you got a rear v/c leak for sure.

glassboro is a trip away from Hackensack. we have have a bunch of jersey members who may want to help you and fight the cost of shop prices.
 
if you have car ramps, take them with you so you can spray it down underneath. and then wash it off good.

cleaning the under side is as important as the top, if not more.
 


That is exactly how my car is leaking. I removed one of the oil pan bolts, and the bolt hole was full of oil, as well the bolt was also coverd in oil, so that leads me to believe my oil pan gasket is bad as I have replaced all other gaskets above (valve cover, LIM gaskgets) whith no signs of leakage, block above pan rail is clean and dry. I recommend removing one of the pan bolts and see if it is wet inside, or dry. If it is dry, your leak may be comiing from above as suggested in erlier posts.
I have these to install when the next oil change is due. How much FUN it is going to be!

It's not bad to install the aluminum pan. Since you don't have to reinstall the horseshoe bracket. That's the worst part of the job IMO.
 
ok its leaking all over it seems like it sat in the garage for a week and theres 2 drops on the ground the bracket under the crankshaft pully theres oil in the valley of the bracket if that makes any sence
