Have a leak where the oil lines connect in front of the radiator.
Bad hoses or could it just require some tightening?

John, the oil lines are a know problem for leaking on the earlier cars, 90 to 91' I would remove the center bolt an replace the O rings to see if that does not fix yours.
Good luck |

![]() Make sure the fittings are tight as z proud suggests ![]() ![]() What I do on oil pan gasket, water pump gasket or any gasket in contact with oil or water (including "O" ring mating surfaces) is use a light coat of Permatex.....NO LEAKS after that ![]() I coat each side of gaskets very lightly with Permatex and let it get tacky....then just place the gasket on any surface and it sits there without holding or moving as I insert bolts into the components. Now when you go to remove those "Permatexed Gaskets", it is no fun but then I rarely have to remove those gaskets. NO...do NOT use Permatex on Head Gaskets ![]()

Finally got around to installing O rings and it worked great!
Thanks all.
