Any tips for locating leaks on my truck it has some kind of oil look greasy feeling fluid thats on only the left side of the engine and i dont think its oil because ive checked all the lines and gaskets there is a lit bit of a leak around the oil pan gasket but not enough for it to leak on tge ground

@awesomeauthier1326 Timing/valve cover gasket leak most likely.

If you have a maintenance manual for the truck look up it's replacement process and you should see where it is. Then you should be able to follow the leak to the same location to verify it is the source.

Cheap fix if it is so, but your car will be down for 24 hours or so until the gasket maker is done setting.

...

Still only a guess, not enough info in your post to be super accurate.

Um i check the valve cover and its not leaking

Heres a pic of where it drips down from

Thats underneth it

That pic is torward the front near the fan belt and stuff and that is the oil pan to the right

@awesomeauthier1326 Is that also your steering column on the center-left side of the photo?

possible leak locations

If it's an oil pan gasket, then replacement may or may not be worth the time to replacement as it may still leak afterwards, depending on the age and make of your vehicle.

Cleaning everything as well as you can, then running the vehicle for 30 mins or so, so you can see the leak without road grit and grim is also a good way to find the leak.

Finally I can talk about cars with people that don't get triggered

That’s a beautiful Fair Lady 300ZX!

I saw one once that was light yellow.

@Equalibrium that is the left side of my underside of my engine the steering column is on the right i think that is a picture of the power steering pump but thanks for the insight it helps a lot more than you realize

the thing that looks like its leaking and there is some fluid coming from the lines going out of the power steering resivoir so i think im gonna start replacing gaskets if it gets too bad but i dont think its to big of a problem right now at least

it leaks a bit but ill keep tabs and just add more when it needs it

for now im just gonna focuse on getting my lowering blocks on and painting it

Glad to help!
