If you can see it all over the bay it's probably not the usual one along the bottom of the front!

Its at the front of the engine bay. but the belts have splashed it over the bay i think . :mad:

Turned out to be the steering box leaking couldnt get a steering box so my mechanic rebuilt the box fitted new seals :dance: best bit was he only charged me £128 inc vat :dance:
