I have a pretty bad oil leak that needs to be fixed. I am trying to determine the origin of the leak. The area under the main seal looks too clean for oil to be coming from there.. I have outline the part where I think the origin of the leak is from in green. I think it is behind that plate, there is a big oil spot on the underside of the waterpump (as seen in the picture). Is it possible that oil is coming out from the top of the plate outlined in green, and shooting onto the water pump? what is behind that plate exactly?
Other symptoms. I feel like my oil pressure sensor is going out.. I start the car and the oil pressure reads normal for about 10 seconds, after that though it shoots through the roof! way to HIGH! now to me it seems like that means there is a blockage, or the sensor is going out.
Are the problems related perhaps? Please tell me your input. surprisingly the timing belt is free of oil.. but the three accessory belts are coated in oil.
Also, I have included a picture with a red circle and a question mark. Is that the oil pressure sensor?
PLEASE HELP! thanks
