Oil leak
 
There is an oil leak that is pretty bad on my car dripping from the front to the back, it looks like while i have it son jack stands there is oil dripping from the front of the engine and running along the top of the oil pan, coming to one point and dripping on the ground

If i rev it up real high i can see alot of oil on my power steering line

Ok so now i can see its the front cover gasket, shit.

Its right next to where the cas is and its dripping down, any suggestions?

make sure the bolt holding your e shaft is tight. it walked itself out on my 7 now i got a blown engine since all the oil spewed out at once.

Could be a front cover seal too.

It looks like the oil is seeping out by wher the dowel is on the front cover.

To replace the front cover gasket what parts am i gonna' have to remove and what o-rings and gaskets do i need to buy other than the obvious front cover gasket? The engine has 62k on it.

Damn, mines leaking oil pretty bad, too. But I think it's the OMP. I gotta get a new one for mine. :( Mazdatrix says ~$250. D:

S4 or S5?

I have like 2 S4 OMPs
