Found where oil leak is coming from!!
Today I was replacing my driverside cv joint boot while looking up into the engine bay I noticed my oil pump was covered in fresh oil and I do believe this is the source of my leak. I s there a cheap way of fixing this or will I just have to replace the oil pump?? And is this a easy job?
