I own a 1989 Jaguar XJS V12 and it has a slow engine oil leak. I first checked up top around the oil senders and cam covers and everything looks fine.
Went underneath and couldn’t see much at first, checked the sump and then removed the torque converter cover and found this. It looks pretty fresh with new oil.
I also checked the PCV and it wasn’t too bad, but easy enough to clean.
If it means anything that side of the car last year had an oil leak. Cam cover, box was resealed and oil feed pipe was done in that side. Oil leaks stopped but have noticed a small drop now.
