Noticed a bit of an oily wet patch near and around my sump, so got under to take a closer look, and narrowed down that it appears to be seeping from in or around the bottom of the cambelt cover




Now i now the rocker cover is leaking a little, my theory is its leaking slightly more on the bit behind the pulleys and its dripping down the inside of the belt cover and out here

is there anything else in that area it may leak from

My old IB5 gearbox leaked on my z-s. Not sure how close that is but I could see when looking down through the bay.
