Oil leak 84es

[brobones]

I have small oil leak just above the exhaust outlet on the block. How extensive is it to fix this, is this a common place for this model to leak oil from? What is involved in fixing it, TIA any info is always greatly appreciated.

probably just a head gasket. easy fix. are you sure its not coming from the valve cover?

Pretty sure don't see it seep out that high up, is there a better to way identify the leak?
thanks for the reply

Yes it is common on that model. Not to bad - pull the valve cover off - get a new gasket and install it to spec - and vioila - fixed.

Post a pic for identification
