Hi Tia, I had a front main seal leak recently. If you can tell what type of
oil it is (gear oil or engine oil) then you'll know. You can also monitor
your oil levels to see what is leaking but that takes time. I recomend that
you thoroughly clean the engine so you can better see where the leak is
coming from. If it is the engine/trans union, it's either a transmission
input or a front main engine seal, get one of each before you pull the
engine, they're pretty cheap.
