The story so far along time ago some #### of a mechanic changed the cam belt and made a mess of it bending push rods and fooking a couple of rockers he then took the head of to check for further damage for which there was none!! replaced what he had broken and had another go.
After a while i noticed a small amount of oil showing on the near side of the engine.
Since then i have cleaned out the cyclone, checked all the pipes to and from the same, checked the air pipe to the turbo, tipped a can of wynns engine stop leak and scrubbed the side of the block down yesterday with paraffin and still there is a leak i have attached some photos of the offending area any would be grateful i am assuming all that is left is the exhaust manifold but just to be sure!!!!
Heres hoping.

100% the manifold cleaned it to an inch of its life gave it a good a thrashing up a slope around here no hills in Norfolk clear as a bell where it was coming from as you look at it it was the left hand side of the inlet manifold i cleaned the inlet up as best i could and the pipe from the intercooler up to it and to be honest its a damm site better i will still have to replace the gasket but to be honest all my work has to done on the drive and its to bloody cold, suffer from old nerve damage to my fingers from the frost years ago so it bloody hurts!!!
Sorry from the lateness in replying, man flu and 10 days on shift killed me off!!!!!!
