I just changed the timing belt on my car and everything seemed OK. Then, I took it on a 1/2 hour drive and when I pulled in the driveway, after about 2 minutes, I had a pretty steady oil leak from under the timing cover. I pulled the covers back off and there was oil all over the bottom end of the motor. I had my wife run it with the covers off and saw no leaks, but it had only leaked before if I went on the highway for a while then stopped. I am guessing its the crank seal, but it seems it could also be either the oil pump seal or the balance shaft. Any ideas?
