Oil leak?

[m35a2AL]

I noticed that there was a good amount of oil on the top of the axle and inside the bay.

While investigating, I noticed a pipe coming off the top of the valve covers that just opened up next to the fender and looks to be the source. The pipe is flared, and looks like it should have a hose on it.

Any ideas?

Thank you all in advance.

Well the pipe starts on the top of the valve covers, but it does run next to the turbo and down almost to the axle.

Oh!! I'm sorry, I didn't know it was a link.

That does answer my question!

I like to replace mine(if missing) with a piece of hose long enough to get just below the axle.

Glad ya found out what it is, I like to think it as rust proofing the bottom of the truck! lol
