well the top of the starter motor is full with oil, so that puts the oilfilter/adapter/pressure sender out of the picture, its really difficult to see under there tho, but i wouldent be suprised if it was pissing out the side of the gasket?

It could well be the oil feed, as it goes that way on the mk1 engine. Its held by the inlet manifold bolts, so could well be the issue.

ive had a look this morning in the light, but i still can't really see anything
![]() heres a little pic of the starter with a little oil resivoir on top of it, the oil's pissed everywhere, all down the chassis/inner wing, etc also the snapped head bolt is on the other side of the head so i would have expected that side to go first? ![]()

That side of the head is the pressurized side. You might struggle to remove the oil line, without removing the inlet manifold.

Well yesterday, I actually helped someone do the headgasket on their S12.
This one suffered water getting into the combustion chambers, and the reason was due to the HG rotting from lack of anti-freeze. However, there's one pressurized area, and its right beside a head bolt. Its the inlet side, 2nd one in from the rear. In my opinion I'd be surprised that its rotten the gasket there though |
