          You probably need to change your brake shoes.

                does it leak when it running? it pretty common for the o-ring in between the oil cooler and the block to leak and when it does it will leak as it runs and you can see it if you get under the car and look while its running. it leaks right down on the mid pipe and then starts to smoke. check out the picture below, the o-ring is # 33. good luck

                  leak is coming somewhere from the top,back of the motor.anything there that might leak? thought it might be the oil filter but i changed the oil and filter but its still leaking.is that where the oil cooler is ?

                    the leak coming from the o-ring mentioned in my above post will still leak even if you change the filter. what you need to do is take the oil filter off, then remove the oil cooler bolt ( # 23 ) and then replace the o-ring. if you have any other questions please feel free to ask. thanks

                      I second the Oil Pressure Switch. Its right above the Oil Filter capped with a rubber thing with 2 wires coming out of it.

                        could also be this as well. both this and the o-ring will visibly leak while the car is running. best bet is to jack the car up and put it on jack stands ( make sure it is secure). start the car up and crawl under it while it is running and just look at where the above parts are located, the leak will be obvious if its either one of these items. good luck.

                          which engine do you have bud? because i think the oil cooler o-ring and the oil pressure switch both leak onto the downpipe.

                              grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
                              got the cb from the shop last night just to find out today that its still leaking.
                              they said that the leak was coming from the oil pressure swith and they out they taped it and put it back in but its still leaking .any input?
