where on the motor is there evidence of the oil coming from?

not sure its all over the intake side (oil that is) im gone go and wash it at the car wase that way its clean then drive it home and see if in can localize i hope its nothing major. other than that it runs pretty good

what have you done to the motor, was it rebuilt?
if so did you have the head checked to see if it was warped, & did you
use new head bolts to put it back together?

other than that, you might have an oil passage stopped up,
or the head gasket didn't mate /seal up right and is causing the leak.

hope it's nothing major!

MAKE SURE YOU USE A TORQUE WRENCH, AND TORQUE THE BOLTS TO THE SPECS IN A SHOP MANUAL. THAT WAY YOU KNOW THAT YOU WON'T STRIP THEM OUT AND CREATE MORE PROBS.
