Has the potential to be a good thread. Just need to attach the step by step fixes.

Hi all. First post here. I'll update my profile and add some pics soon but I needed to add to this thread.
Just got a new used 1994 Polo green. When I parked I smelled oil burning. Took it in for a nice Mobil 1 oil change and he said the "speedometer adapter" is leaking onto the exhaust. Said it's not a big deal and if I ever change the exhaust, which I plan to do, that would be a good time to seal it up. Does this make sense to anyone?
Thanks

Many years ago I was a paratrooper and I was jumpmaster on a jump when I hung out the door of the plane to make sure no other aircraft around, I noticed oil running down the side of the plane ( a old C123) I told the air Force loadmaster what I saw, He said thats good when it stops we got a problem.

You collect this rare art too!?!?!?
we should collaborate and discuss opening a gallery somewhere!
This almost motivates me to go clean the drip pan off and then after my car does its nasty all over the drip pan I can post it and you can tell me if my art is better or worse than yours.........
