not sounding good.

Yeah looking at history hasn't been worked on since 2005. Here's hoping for a good day

Right. So I have a puddle of oil on the head dizzy side. So I just went to work to take the cam cover off and re sealed the gasket. Drove home and the oils there again. It doesn't look like it's coming from the rocker cover. Now I'm thinking it's the cam bearing cap next to the dizzy. Anyone experienced this before?
