Oil every where

[phyco99]

To start I live in Savannah, Ga and I had to drive to Augusta, Ga to do some training. So I went home this past weekend, and I was checking my ride to get her ready for the ride back to Augusta. To my surprise I see a puddle of oil on the passenger side, but it is towards the front of the car. So I opened the hood and I see that there is oil on the bottom half of the engine. I notice that it is on the main pulley, (sorry I can not remember the name for it!) I can not tear it down because I do not have the time, and I am still in Augusta, can I get some ideas. Could it be the oil pan? It seems that there is more splatter on the passenger side of the of the engine bay. Or is there a good place here in Augusta that I can take it in? I can really help use the help!

It's probably the front main seal. The oil leaks out of it onto the crank pulley and gets slung every which way. It's a fairly eash seal to replace.

Easy? Great! Any posts that can help me get it done?

i recommend picking up a harmonic balancer removal tool, i changed mine and with the tool it took under an hour to do.

And an impact wrench, quickest and easiest way to get the nut off without turning anything.

Is there a post that has some details that have done one? Also, do I have to do the timing also? I really dont know how to do that.
