    Is this the notorious timing cover leak? Any suggestions on repairs? I have read through a few posts where people cleaned off/ resealed the access panel. Any advice helps... thanks,IMG-6015.jpg IMG-6015.jpg guys.

    There is a 4th option as well. You can use the blue devil oil stop leak. Worked well on my truck and going 3 months without a leak.
