Engine oil leak
Ok so I still have a front area oil leak. Passenger side it is on and the oil filter had oil dripping from it not a lot but a drip. New front oil seal and oil pump and gaskets. Oil when parked drips from oil filter end and from the steering rods and from front diff bottom as it settles down. Looks dry behind the harmonic balancer now :-). Video here has passenger side
Can't get the .mov to upload will try to ficure it out and report it

Fortunately, it's not hard or expensive to fix either.
good and I should do plugs and wires at the same time too
Yeah, might as well while you have easy access to the coils.
Good time to do injectors too if you haven't already, as reman sets are cheap on ebay, around $60 for all 8.
You should also get the o-ring for the coolant pipe on the passenger front of the lower intake.
The front, center coolant neck can stay on the lower intake.
You'll have to pull the valve covers too, but, if the gaskets look ok, I'de clean and reuse them, and I put a small bead of silicone on both sides of them anyway.
Also easy to knock out the factory oil seperator with the valve cover off to do the Best4x4 pcv valve mod(if you haven't already).
