1989 SSE rear valve cover wet with oil?
Since changing the power steering pump ( 2nd time in a year), I noticed a smoking problem of burning oil or fluid from the engine.It seemed a lighter color. Seemed to be located just under the pump, so I figured I spilled some fluid taking it out, so would stop once burned off. Well, two weeks later, still smoking. So enlisted the help of a mechanic friend. he came up with the gasket of the valve coverbeing the culprit. We changed it, it is better but still smokes some. And I notice a light wetness to several parts of the rear valve cover. I have tried observing engine while running, but no luck seeinga leak or anything obvious. Any suggestions where to look? Thanks
