hpop line?

Coming home from school droped the gf off at her house and being the gentleman i am i pull into her driveway and walk he up. Well as i was backing up noticed a bigger than usual oil stain and got out and looked. There was oil over the driver fender steering shaft and drive shaft. Not turbo or oil filter (was just replaced) is there a hpop line in that direction? Thanks guy any info would be great. Have a big snowmobiling trip next week would love to have it fixed by then.

Wasn't from the oil cooler was it?

If it is from a HPOP line it's probably a busted o-ring. Easy to replace.

Lightbulb

Also could be leaking oil from the BIG bolt in the front of the head, but more common from a bad o-ring as mentioned.

Oil cooler is the big tube looking thing that runs from where the oil filter goes on forward to the front of the block.

Your block heater plugs into the back end of it. Very common for the o-rings in that to go bad during cold weather.
