Hey forum, i have a 380 with 170,000kms with an oil leak coming from the firewall drivers side extractors region and where the thin power steering belt runs what could this be?? And my extractors are glowing orange, has anyone had this before??
Thanks

And the oil leak is engine oil and leaks about 100-200mils of oil every 1hr or so of driving

Never had my headers glow... and I think the only time I've seen a non-turbos headers glow is when they try to kill it on a dyno. Got pic's? Do the headers glow in normal driving conditions? Are they standard headers? Has one of the front car' converters collapsed and caused a blockage - any rattles from that area? Is the car noticeably down on power
The oil leak is most likely a rocker cover gasket. But, I'd degrease/clean the engine thoroughly when its cool to be sure.

1. oil leak, camshaft seal
2. glowing extrasctors, blocked cat, faulty o2 sensors
off to livo for a new exhaust system
