need some help
ok so a couple days ago i hit the bottom of my s13 real bad and now it leaks oil BUT only while it is running, when ithe engine is off no oil leak.so i went under and turned the car on but found no damage and its leaking from what seems to be the upper oil pan i guess because the bottom part (black stock sr pan) dosent look like its leaking it looks to be right above it but i cant see it with my eyes (no space)what could be the possiblilities? i though it was maby the turbo line but i checked and its not.please help

Without looking at it, it's hard to tell. If you bottomed out really hard, and it only leakes while running, you may have cracked or broken the upper oil pan.
