Basically my car was leaking oil badly, getting on the timing belt which was slinging it everywhere, I took the motor apart(was also burning some oil). To check things out, and replace the belt(timing belt+oil=bad) and fix the leak(I hope).
Well the tensioner itself has oil on it, and there is oil all over the top of the timing cover(The inner metal one for timing belt b(aka balance shaft).
I am not sure if the tensioner is leaking or if something else in or near the inner timing cover is, I'm looking for input on the most likely culprit or a list of all the possibilities in that general area. But at least now I have a more specific area to look in.
