Back-in-the-day, I would have guessed your oil leak was a front main bearing seal .......

Oh, we aren't back in the day ......

Hell, I'm not sure what's leaking but, as you requested, this is the best I can come up with a picture ......

(I would guess that the lower part of the timing chain cover is leaking).

Young man? Thanks!!

After going through a bunch of pics I think your lower timing chain cover assessment is correct

Thank you! I guess I could have come up with that but sometimes I don't think of searching for images

I'm well over the regular 60k warranty period but hoping that the 7/100 that I got because I bought the car CPO covers things like this. I'm going to contact the dealer today and see what happens.

Thanks for the help guys
