Oil Leak?
Hey guys, so I was looking at my belt and notice that it is getting cracked due to an oil leak. anyone know any common leaks around the oil filter or and around the front where the belt runs.

The oil cooler and oil filter housing gaskets.
Replace both of them and while you're replacing the cracked belt replace the belt tensioner and pulley as well.

So change both of the gasket and belt, unfortunately my local shop didn't have tensioner in stock but it is on its way. so far haven't seen a leak around belt. I'll keep you update it.
