Clean off the engine first, add flouresent dye, run engine and check with black light. Repair as nec. Remember many oil leaks start up high on the engine and run down and around the heads and block looking like oil pan leaks,rear main seals,etc.How do I find and fix oil leaks in my car engine?
You must put the car on a lift or jack-stands, wipe everything clean, and run the engine while someone watches the leaks. Trace the oil back to where it is coming from, and then you will know what to fix. No one engine has the same leaks, so it's hard to tell you how to fix it, until they know what to fix. Good Luck!!!
finding easy. clean off as goods as youcan start engine look for leaks
i own a repair shop,and the first thing you need to do is clean the engine off in it,so you can see exactly where the oil is coming from on it then you might be able to find it,once you do find it then you,ll need to start replacing what ever is causing it to leak,it can be a small leak or a large one,you really wont know until you clean it off and run it a little to see for sure,good luck with it,i hope this Will help you.
Check under hood for obvious signs and trails of oil. Repairs can be complex depending on where leak is coming from.





If the leak is bad enough, you may have to degrease the engine first. Spray degreaser (Simple Green) on cold engine and let it sit....spray off with garden hose. Drive for a while and check where drips may have formed.





Leaks can be tricky....good luck.
