Have a oil leak and need some advise. Discovered a very small amount of oil located in front of the right rear wheel. Wondering if the leak is coming from one of the oil lines.

Thanks,
John

What kind of car do you have? Could also be leaking from the oil tank plug if the washer didn't seat right...

Need a model, newer ones don’t have oil lines there, older ones you’d be able to see “wet” on lines.

SC oil tank behind wheel. Thermostat and oil lines in front. Check for wet on lines and thermo. Consider if car was parked almost there before and you didn’t notice before. Also AC line is there. Check and make sure it's engine oil.

Thanks for the suggestions. It's oil and I'll check for wet on the lines and thermo.
