its common to see oil leak around the HPFP area. when your looking at your motor its the corner closest to you on your right and underneath the mass of brackets/pumps/wiring

they are normally very minor "seepages" if you want to call them that. mine has it and its never bad enough to really voice any concern over other than the fact it looks dirty most of the time

This

Mine was leaking enough to actually leak down the transmission and onto the ground, usually very minor. Its just shitty GM quality. took all of 45 minutes to do from start to finish

Drove her to Radio Shack, to find out they STILL have not replenished their stock of 30Amp relays that I sold them out of a month ago.
Drove her to O'Riely Auto Parts to get some Spark Plugs
Drove her to Wendys to get some Lunch
Drove her to the ccredit union to get some cash
Drove her back home.

Sealed the 3rd brake light. It has been weeping water when I wash it since I put in the led. Installed my 3 gauge pillar, interceptor and EGT gauge. Still need to drill the exhaust for the egt probe. Will do that as soon as I can get it into the garage for a while.
