Hi all,

Firstly sorry if I've posted this to the wrong section.

My 76 series 1HZ engine appears to be leaking from the bottom of the engine.

I don't really know enough. But it looks like it could be the sump gasket? Anybody got any ideas on what it could be and what I need to do (other than get it fixed )

Attached a couple of videos and a photo of it. Taken from underneath the vehicle looking up at the sump/engine area. If anybody wants any videos or photos of something else to help, please let me know what and I'll go take more.

Oh videos didn't post from the upload.
Hopefully these two YouTube videos help



Cheers for the help,
James

Don't know if it will help, but here's what I would do: get a can of brake cleaner, spray the whole area clean, and observe exactly where the leakage is taking place.
Also, look up the exact torque for the bolts in the cover and check if some of them might have come loose. After that, it's time to check the seal.
IMHO.
