I have a fe450 with 105 hours
There is an oil leak that is collecting on the underside of the engine.
There is a small screw plug next to the exhaust (part number 59030296000) that it appears to be coming from.
What is this for and could this be where the oil is coming from? If it was not and there are no obvious leaks from the oil lines could this be something more sinister? Blown gaskets?
I have checked the valve cover and the oil return line and the breather from valve cover to underside of the airbox and rechecked the oil level - all ok. The exhaust was a bit loose but assume any oil from there would be burnt off.
Any advice appreciated.
