Oil Leak

99 Ranger 2.5L...oil is dripping down the side of the pan on the driverside. looks like its above the dipstick but i cant see because of the manifold is in the way. was thinking of taking the manifold off and looking behind it...any ideas? truck has 146k on it never burned oil or leaked any until now. thanks

On the drivers side you have the oil fliter, the oil pressure sending unit, and the Pvc system plus the valve cover anyone of those can leak oil

It could come from a number of areas, but its probably not a bad idea to replace all the gaskets from the valve cover on up. Without being able to see the exact source, you will probably at least have to pull the manifold.
