I have this strange oil leak this has baffled me for about a week. It drips off the front differential just left of the center of the engine.
The first likely culprit looked to be the turbo oil drain tube rubber coupler hose. I replaced it. Still leaking. I notice oil at the bottom of the turbo where the pipe bolts to the turbo. Pulled the turbo and replaced the gasket. Still leaking the same, except the turbo oil drain tube appears to be dry except where I can't see it behind the right exhaust manifold.
Could it posiably be the drain pipe itself? Anyone ever expirence this?
Thanks,
MIke
