Locating oil leak during timing belt replacement
Hello,
Doing my timimg belt (will post pics tomorrow), now see the photo I can tell the water pump is leaking so that's good because I will replace it but there a small pool of oil under the crankshaft pulley and it's clean around the seal so it must be coming fom above and there is oil above as well, but it's clean under the camshaft seals !!!!
Any idea ? Can it come from something around the water pump ?
Thanks !

Ok, I'll replace it, maybe the mark above are only water marks.
I am wondering if I should change the camshaft seals too but it looks like a pain to remove the sprockets without turning them

most dont replace the cam seals unless leaking
the idler puller or tensioner may have gone and let its oil out too
