i have a vehicle with a 3sfe engine, 188k on the clock (116miles) and its leaking some oil.
I cant take a picture at the moment, because its night over here, but it looks like this

Its the leak below the oil filter, and next to the dip stick. Oil then runs down engine, and drips off the sump onto my garage floor
I just got the car, so it will go straight back to the dealership on monday to get repaired, but for my own interest, could someone shed some light on what would be leaking?
I searched the forums, and the web and found the 3sfe leaks in the
- Distributor housing o-ring
- Distributor shaft bearing seal
- Rear side of valve cover gasket
- Head gasket, oil feed channel-below the sending unit
- Oil pump o-ring
I have been unable to find any good service/workshop manuals for the engine online, so i am clueless as to where any of this stuff is in relation to the leak (as I said, its night so i cant go locate it myself)
Thanks guys
