However, this is also the area where the the timing-belt
cover curls around the backside a bit. Would my guess of bad head
gasket be correct in this?
I thought i had the same problem when i noticed the oil in the exact area you
are talking about. It turned out to be a leaky oil cap. Check that out. For
what ever reason it is easier to see oil on the cast iron block than on the
head thats why at first I thought it was the headgasket. Good luck
