Alright so I have this oil leak around my oil cooler I can't figure out what it is. I have replaced the cam seals balance shaft seals crakseal tighten the rod that the oil filter goes onto but yet I still have a leak a pretty decent one to about a quart a week but I drive a lot too. I am not sure if it is at the oil cooler but i am pretty positive anyone have any ideas of what it could be?
 
Is it coming from some where on the oil cooler or around the lines that attach to the oil filter housing? Where exactly are you getting wet oil. Maybe a picture would help.
 
Powerwash the area where you think the leak is coming from, then after it`s clean & dry, run the engine & follow the leaking oil to the highest point that you can see. It`s probably one of the oil pressure switches leaking.
 
The highest place I see it is the oil cooler I was thinking it maybe the I-ring that goes onto the rod that screws into the oil cooler
