I chamged the valve cover gaskets, I changed the cam cover seals. No discoloration or contamination in my coolant reservoir but I still have a leak and that burnt, cooked oil smell.
I'm at a loss. I see the evidence but I don't see the origin of my leak. It's coming from the back of the motor. HELP, yes ohbw, I am shouting.

I replaced the preather hose on the driver's side before I did the gaskets or seal. The other one is fine.
Thank You.

I am going to drive it and put it op on ramps again and look really hard. The leak is motor oil though but I'll look.
Thank You.

Default Hopefully not, but head gaskets

Mine would leak under the exhaust manifold and burn off when in contact, on the driver's front and rear corners. Haven't fix it yet, but getting there. It'll be a pita.
