What is the odometer reading? Do you see oil drops on the ground? Where do you see the drops in relation to the engine? Did you look underneath the engine the first time? (not a trick question, on some of the earlier vehicle produced in Japan, Toyota spray the drivetrain with coating before putting them on the boat to prevent corrosion from sea. It is a thick yellowish coating that looks like old oil leak.) You can always use oil dye to determine if there is any other source of oil leak.

N.E.O.
