oil leak I have a 2001 camaro ss with a vortec supercharger running 12 psi and I am having an oil leak on the right side of the motor. It is very hard to see were any oil is coming from but from, what I can see there is oil on my long tube headers were they are connected to the heads which could just be from oil leaking down from higher up. Could I have blown a valve cover gasket from the increased pvc pressure? I do not here any knocks or pings but I was getting oil in my impellar side from the pvc valve which i put an inline catch can in. There is some oil on my coils and when the car is really hot there is smoke coming from that side. I don't think I have a cracked head the car has never overheated but I guess anything can happen. Any suggestions????
Check everywhere there is a bolt on that side of the motor. If you wipe it all clean and then drive it around some, you should see it start again and get a better idea of where it originated before it all settles in the low spots.
Good luck man, I hate stuff like that too.
