Oil leak from timing belt side of engine

Hi. Folk i have an oil leak from the timing belt side of my engine, it is over my alternator and down the front side. tryed checking the rocker cover gasket but could not see anything could it be an oil seal in that area or would you suggest replacing the rocker cover seal. any help is appreciated.

Is it a 1.8 ,v6 ,xedi or a td4 ?

profile says 1.8

Should burn well .

evening my friend,it will either be from rocker cover or the camshaft oil seals.mark

Hi folk. Sorry it is an 1.8 03 plate and done 115.000 mls. If its any of the oil seal does this mean an engine strip or can they be done without stripping the engine.

If it is cam shaft oil seal or rocker box it is easy- if it is headgasket oil way it is an engine strip

Wait until the cam belt is due if the leak is only small or if it's bad do the belt at the same time!! It's an easy job to do only requiring the cam pulleys and cover back to be removed. Not an engine rebuild !!

1.8 and you say If hgf.Wouldn't that be first think to check

Cheers folk timing belt was changed about. 18 months ago when 2 valves packed in. Will replace rocker cover gasket first then seals if not sorted. ya very much.

My 1.8 had 2 oil leaks when I bought it, first was from a rusting oil filter and the other from the front crankshaft oil seal. To check where its coming from give the engine a proper clean then run it to find out where its leaking.
