My tib 03 have a freaking leak oil because all the area is very dirty and i have less oil in my motor. But i cant found whats its the area because its dirty everywhere most because i have a leak from the power steering pump to. And the oil leak cames from, i beleved, the middle to down where is the pulleys of the serpentine. I didnt see oil came from the timing upper pulleys thats the crankshaft pulleys right? I domt see oil from the behind of the pulleys of this 2 ...l. The thing is one day im in a parking lot and suddenly i see smoke came from the right side of the motor and go to see whats goin on and i see a big splash of oil coming from i dont know and this goes to the serpentine and this cause damage to it. Then stop and never do that again but i dont have idea why or what is the part is leaking... So. I try to upload pictures ...i have a nightmare right now with this old car. And a mechanic want to charge me 80 bucks for change only the power steering pump... ujummm thinking how many for do all the job...so i will try to dead at the line.

How many miles on the engine? Thinks that start leaking with high miles are valve cover seals, camshaft and crankshaft seals. The upper and lower oil pans gaskets/seals can break down and start leaking. Also the O-Rings in the oil pump and upper oil pan can break down and cause leaks as well. My suggestion would be to steam clean the engine which should help you figure out all the places the leaks are coming from.
