MeoW71 Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 I was trying to determine where I was getting an oil leak when I noticed that there was a hole in the bottom, center rear timing belt cover (see attachment). I'm pretty sure it isn't supposed to be there. If it isn't, I'm going to guess it isn't a good idea to leave it like that, even though it possibly has been like that for a year+. As for the oil leak, apparently the dipstick tube is not all the way in, I can see one of the gaskets for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Capacity Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 I'm more worried about the oil leak then the hole. With the lower engine cover on, there should not be much crap getting up in that area. 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD). CHECK your oil, these cars use it. Engine Build - Click Here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
