Still, a little leak...

So, after having the cam seals and side valve cover seals replaced I still have a small, but annoying leak. Looks like one drop overnite towards the front on the engine. (based on checking the garage floor underneath the car. I am guessing the o-ring on the P/S pump... What do you think?

What colour is the fluid? It'd be red if it's P/S, as we use ATF in there.

Then again, if it's red, it could be from the tranny fluid lines too.

You are right. It can be very well the seal from the PS pump. I had that problem.

The oil drips slowly somewere the oil filter area.

I replaced the seal AND the bearing (less then $20 both) from the PS and now is brand new.

Good luck
