I have a 92 Eagle Talon AWD. I have an oil leak that seems like it drips down from the lower pulley. IT drips down over the Oil cooler(internal). Its hard to spot where the drip is coming from since it has to be driven,parked,and turned off for it to leak. It leaks about 8 quarter-size drops out each time. There is oil on the alternator, irewall, and sidewall next to the timing belt cover.I was told it could possibly be a main seal,but theres hardly any oil on the timing belt. Any suggestion is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

The link below has some pictures from where the oil is,and where it leaks on. I have wiped some of the oil up,but there is still alot of oil where it shouldnt be.

I'm kinda confused here - I think I see a Water to Oil Cooler, but MAYBE no Oil Filter against it - Then lines off the OFH that MIGHT run to an External Oil Cooler ?? - BEWARE of Power Steering Fluid leaks from hard O Rings on P/S Pump as they kill Voltage Regulator in Alternator & then your ECU soon after...
