Hello Ladies & gents, I have lost my 4x4 virginity and purchased a '93 200Tdi Discovery. Bought off a friend (1 not so very attentive lady owner)! Is a bit old & little rough around the edges but a good ride all the same (not unlike another lady I know);)

But, I have oil leaking from not sure where. Appears to be originating from back of cylinder head/gasket then running down & covering everything. I have cleaned area off, as best I could, with WD40 & rag but was reluctant to use power hose until I know extent problem. Also 1 of the pipes linking injectors/glowplugs(??) might have a small hole in it as it had a wet look to it after wiping dry and running engine.

So any ideas what might be the problem and am I barking up the wrong tree and talking nonsense?

And finally, and probably related, the poor thing loses power on inclines road/off-road is this connected?

Many thanks & please ignore my ignorance
