I have a nasty oil leak coming from the top of my engine, same side as
cam belt. Does anyone have any idea where this might be coming from
and how it can be fixed? It’s made such a mess it’s impossible to see
where it’s actually leaking. Just wondered if this was a common
problem with an easy solution..?

Thanks...

The most common cause in any TU engine is the rocker cover gasket. It
goes hard and cracks and leaks. Other than that it could be the head
gasket. That normally goes in the timing belt cover area. Or the
camshaft oil seal.

Thanks, I will try rocker cover gasket - hopefully that’s what it will
be. :lol:
