I have oil leaking from somewhere on the back passenger side of my engine. No clearance to even see with a mirror. Any ideas where it could be coming from or does anyone have pictures of a 3.2L on a stand. Also, theres a big hole (about 1.5-2") and I can see the cam spinning. Is there supposed to be a plug or cap over that hole?
Thanks,
jaybird

being that there is oil pumped to the cam ill bet that is were your oil is coming from. not sure if there is a plug or not but i do know that the cam should be covered....

That is most certainly your leak. Pretty sure there is a rubber plug that's supposed to be there. I have vague memories of a TSB or recall for this.
