Hey guys,
My truck leaked quite a bit of oil on my drive today. It was leaking power steering fluid recently, it I redid the gaskets on the pump and think (thought?) I had it beat.
There is oil pooling on the same spot, on the motor mount beside the oil filter on the drivers side. I took photos but can’t figure out how to post them . I believe it is oil and not power steering fluid. My oil filler cap leaks a bit of oil but I don’t think that is the problem.
Any ideas?
I had my buddy turn the wheel back and forth and didn’t see any power steering fluid leak.

Re: Oil Leak Help!
Welcome to our site.
Be sure your oil filter is tight and that you don't have the gasket from the old filter still stuck there.
It happens , and a double gasket doesn't leak right away , but it will leak.
there maybe a oil pressure sending unit or line there too.
And if you have an F E engine. they have a bolt on filter mount that could leak.
