The F250 sprung a leak, found a puddle of oil under it when I moved it out of the barn yesterday. It appears that the #6 & #7 injectors are leaking oil past the grommet in the valve cover. Looks like a pain in the butt to get to, glad I still have engine warranty on it......

Interesting. Only oil leak I've heard/seen happen is the upper oil pan.
Wonder if a boost tube is leaking, and it's spraying crankcase vapors in the area?

It looks like it's coming right out of the top on both middle injectors. I cleaned the area yesterday with brake clean wondering if from the temps towing last week excessive pressure built up for some reason, but drove it around a little yesterday and it was seeping from the #6 injector in about 40 miles of driving and not towing. There are a couple you tube videos on it. Either way it's going into local garage here a week from Monday after we get back from south haven
