My 99 Exp 5.4L continues to leak like a sieve. I can actually see the oil streaming down from around the filter somewhere(non remote - its mounted to engine). It's not the filter because this has been going on for some time (have change filter 10x's already) and now just got worse.

How can it be leaking from around the filter? It appears that the filter is actually mounted to some pad and not the block directly. Is this so?

Are there gaskets around there that need to be replaced or something?

Does anyone have an exploded diagram of the engine block and its components?

In addition, how is there engine oil coming from under my radiator???

I sure would appreciate any advice.
