I've got a leak like a BP oil spill on the front my engine. I'm 99% sure it's the cam seals, but is there anywhere else it could come from? There was oil all over the place so it was hard to tell exactly where it was coming from.

Thanks

Are you sure it's at the front of the engine? Is it visibly leaking while idling from the front of the engine? Did you put silicone in the grooves of the camshaft bearing caps that secure the camshaft seals? Questions, Questions and more Questions

It's definitely in the front and came all of the sudden. There was oil all over the inside of the front cover and on the ground. One of the seals was original and hard as a rock because I didn't have a replacement on hand and wanted to get it on the road for a test drive. (Yeah, I know that was dumb, but I didn't think it would leak like this.) I didn't use silicone.

New seals have been ordered. I was just wondering if there was another place it could leak because I have never seen an oil leak this bad from the front of the engine.

Only other thing could be a leaking oil pan, or a blown oil pump gasket.

Thanks. I'm just trying to keep my bases covered.
