Hey, i got a quick question. I have an oil leak that started after an oil change. Its dripping from the bell housing onto the exhaust. Its dripping on the drivers side from the rear of the motor. I tried to find the leak but i can not find it. Any advise will be much appreciated!!!

Yes i did switch to synthetic but i started it up yesterday and i was looking underneath and there was no leak, but it was definitely leaking before so im not sure. I drove it 30 mins to school today with no issues, no leaks, no burning oil smell or smoke. Ill have to keep an eye on it.

Probably what happened is when you switched to synthetic, it cleaned a bunch of the junk in the engine out, including the junk that was plugging some of those holes. How many miles is on it?

Thats my guss as to what happened, that is why I decided to not run synthetic in my high mile engine that already has a few leaks.
