C5 leaking oil from passenger side. please help.
I have developed an oil leak on my 97 that has about 130k. Its a decent leak and seems to be coming from somewhere toward the front of the car around the accessories. I need help understanding what could be the source of the leak from this area and from there what it would take to fix said area once determined.
ps. it doesnt seem to be coming form the oil pan.

It could be anybody's guess at this point.
Clean the suspected area thoroughly with engine degreaser, and then carefully watch where the fresh oil reappears from.
