Oil Leak :(
Hey I have a problem or the beginning of a problem. I have a little oil leak. It's not a lot but enough to bother me. It leaks on the headers. It's Just some drops when I drive normal but when I get on it it's a little more. There is no problem they way the car runs. What could it be? please don't tell me I need a new motor
Thanks

Three likely places that could come from, the fill neck, the valve cover bolt or the valve cover gasket. Since there is no oil on the valve cover itself, sure looks like an issue with the gasket. Easy fix, just pick up a new gasket and install it.

oil
I have the same filter set up and my occasionally dripped out of the filter. Once you have had the filter for a long period of time it will drip more because it is soaked with oil.
