Question 7.3 Oil leak

I have a 94 PSD with 230,000 miles. It has developed a MAJOR oil leak. I can't figure out where its coming from but it collects in the engine valley before dripping onto the ground. Any ideas what could be leaking up there?

Thanks
Tyler

7.3 Oil leak

It is probably one of the high pressure hoses that run between the high pressure pump that is attached to the back side of the front cover and each cylinder head. If it has a beautification cover on the engine, take it off and take it to a car wash and clean the valley. Then have someone start it up while you watch with a flash light to see where it is coming from.
