Stronger oil leak after tune up

[Retrospekt]

I did a tune up which included seafoam in the vacuum and oil. Only drove about it for 50 miles. I changed plugs, wires, distrib cap and rotor and all filters.

I already had a small distributor leak, but now it's larger. I was going to tackle the distributor o-ring myself but didn't want to mess with the timing. I put on the new rotor and cap and now the oil is leaking harder.

Now here is the weird part: I'm leaking from the middle-left side of the engine. It leaked here months ago, but that was from the camshaft seal that was replaced with the timing belt (along with all the other seals in the area). I'm not sure what this could be. Power steering? How do I tell the difference between power steering and oil?

PS fluid is more-or-less clear ATF fluid (actually, a lot of folks, including myself, run ATF in the PS system...the downside is that telling apart a tranny leak from a PS leak will be a bit of a problem, if and when).

Open up your power steering reservoir. Put some on some white paper. Take a sniff. Compare to oil...

Put some white paper under the area that is dripping. Compare...

i would try to clean up the eng bay and take a look a few days later for the leak

ahh and the only reason i will never use seafoam

the o ring on the distributor is easy just put it in the way it came amd mark of wich wires go where you could even get away with orange rtv around the original oring
