I' trying to track down a nasty oil leak. Jeff Zedic mentioned that he thought the lift pump leaked which I assumed would be a diesel leak. The leak seems to be coming from the IP side of the engine near where the engine mount bracket is bolted to the block. Are there any common leaks on these engines? Does anyone have any thoughts as to where this leak is likely coming from? Thanks in advance.
