Also does the 90 degree tube need to be replaced or just an o-ring. and how does it come out, any bolts or just pulls out.
Also since it is coming right out of there that means no coolant should have been able to get into the oil correct???
Thanks

That's good news. A real leak means it's not going into the combustion chamber and oil gallery.
You have to remove the tensioner base with the bracket on it. There are several bolts. One I believe you access through a hole in the pulley. The angle plastic tubes should all be replaced. They are available at the parts store in a package. I don't know if the o-rings are in the package or separate. Replace all the plastic 90 degree elbows. They are brittle with age. Clean o-ring slots carefully. Some people use a little silicone sealer on the o-rings.
