    First locate the leak, clean the motor, and watch for seepage, someone mentioned using baby powder to make it easier. Your leak could be to valve cover or the retaining bolts for it, or a cooler line, or.... ?

      Most likely would be a valve cover bolt working its way loose.

        there's no simple answer.. you're gonna have to do the work on this... too many places the leak can be. Clean it with degreaser and keep looking for it, replace the offending part.
