    If you look at the engine from the wing on the driver's side. Far right top end, there's a sort of round motor attached to the engine that seems to be on the end of the cam. it's pouring out around that.

    I just didn't feel right about it. The car's worth better money than the asking price. a few people have looked at it prior to me and all into their jags., but they walked away! My gut instinct was it wasn't right, but I couldn't tell why other than that leak so, I slept on it!
