I think I have an oil leak but I'm not sure.I cleaned off what I thought looked like oil from he front of the engine(where the arrow is).After a few day it returned smileys/smiley5.gif

Whats the most likely thing it could be if it is oil???

I'm goin to have a closer look tomorrow if it aint shit weather.

nothing to worry about to much just make sure your oil level stays ok its never really gonna flood out from there its the sides you need to worry about
