hey guys im trying to help my brother out,he just bought a 99 f250 7.3...but theres some hings wrong we are fixing.one thing is, is that i think its a oil seal at the top of the motor that leaks oil down the front of it onto the axle.now could it be a hpop seal or turbo seal because the turbo has some oil stain...if i could get some details to start checking it would be great. thanks

 

Look at the front cover of the motor below the hpop its rtv'd on there. Look there mine has a little leak too I think thats where it comes from. Anything other than anything ip front I think would run down the back

 

thanks..my bro is comin over tomarrow so ill check that..going to pressure wash everything and run it into town and back so i have a fresh oil spot ..

 

also look on the right side of the motor right below the exhaust manifolds, it could be oil cooler, it would leak all over front axle and everything!!

 

could be a few things, diseal looks like oil when it gets dirty could be the fuel bowl thats very common,also the turbo pedistal is very common

 

well bud i got the same problem but its a seal on the top of the motor i forgot whats it called but i got mine fixed by geting a bluber tube. it blows out the extra oil that sits on top of the motor. its an old trick n cheep give it a shot every two weeks check the oil if u use this method. it dosnt blow off alot just a drop ever once in a while. all old motors leak some try some lucas anti leak stuff at a auto parts store
