Where is this oil coming from??
There's oil leaking when I drive to the left and above the oil drain plug. It doesn't drop on the floor at all just wet there. Any thoughts where it's from?

I don't have a lot in the leak dept., it's pretty rare. Places to look: Pushrod seals, oil cooler, connection to the oil filter.

Oil cooler on my last bad leak. Replaced with aluminum. Dramatic difference.
