I did some searching but didn't really find anything. I have an oil leak somewhere in or around my timing belt. I just replaced the head with a built one that I purchased from someone on here. I still have bs. I thought it was leaking from the valve cover because the gasket edges are wet on that side, so I tightened down the valve cover but today it was still leaking. My belt has oil on it so I'm sure it's spreading it everywhere making it harder to find where it is actually leaking from. I know that oil isn't coming out the back side of the timing cover but it is the front. The block and oil filter housing is wet. So where can oil be leaking from on that side? I didn't touch the ofh besides installing an oil feed line, and I still got my bs. Could the valve cover still be leaking oil even though I tightened it down, maybe not getting a good seal? It's a pretty good leak too, but not to the point that'd it's going to go out of oil.
I can get pictures of it tomorrow if that helps.
