Large Oil Leak
Thought I would run this by you guys to see what you think.
2005 B6 1.8t Q 128k
I have an oil leak of roughly a qt every 400mi. I'm not real sure of what it's coming from yet and I need a few ideas. I know it's not the Valve Cover gasket. However, it does come from that vicinity. Rear center of the engine. It is so bad that whatever is "leaking" is also spewing onto the underside of the hood, which leads me to believe that it's pressure driven. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks.

Thanks. I'll check into that! How stressful of a job is that?
Could it possibly the PRV or PCV throwing oil if it's clogged or seized up? It is throwing oil on the underside of the hood just left of the battery, if you're looking at it straight on. Thanks again.
