Is it normal to see oil under the sprocket cap (the one that covers the bolt)? When I removed the caps there was a lot of oil leaking from there. BlauParts sent me replacement seals (small rubber rings) saying I will need them replaced. They never mentioned the actual camshaft seals.

Pic? No idea what you mean? There are no caps on the sprocket.

Hopefully the pictuer will show up.

There is a camshaft toothed wheel (1 of 4) that has a center bolt. That bolt is covered by a cap, which has a seal (rubber ring). There were lo leaks prior removing them from the center of the toothed wheels. Those caps are secured with a spring like metal ring. When I removed them, all 4, the oil leaked like crazy.

well, the pic did show up. I don't know how to attach it exactly. Maybe the way I desribed it, will help somehow.

Otherwise, please help me with posting the pictures.

thanks

What engine do you have? It sounds like you might have a 3.0..........?

Yes. it's 3.0L AVK. To me it seems the oil leak looks like a normal thing. That's why t he caps have seals, to prevent leaking outside.
