Uh oh...

Well this ain't good. I rarely clean out my engine bay. Seems I should do it more often. Look what I found this afternoon when I went to clean it up after all the mud.

Where do you guys figure this oil is seeping from? I don't know enough to be about to source it.

Dash goes through about a quart of oil every change, figured that was about normal after 114,000 hard miles. But, this is definitely not normal:

Tighten the clamps on all those pipes. Clean the engine and see what happens

Clean your engine!!!!!!!!!!!

is that an AT or manual? if it's Auto have you checked the fluid. do you do your own servicing? the last pic looks like it could just be a bit of oil spill. when the dirt sticks to it, it always looks worse.how often do you change the oil? the EJ25's have been known to suck the oil. especially when their worked hard

Smash is an MT

MT, I do my own service, and the fluid level look good. I took that shot just before I did a quick clean.

This afternoon I'm going to clean it well and tighten down all the clamps. Will also see if I can determine if it's fuel or oil.

I change the oil every 2500-3000 miles, he goes thru about a quart every 3000 miles. I use high mileage castrol dino oil.
