Im losing oil from somewhere at the top of
my engine on the back side and i cant figure
it out its losing like a half to a whole quart
everytime i drive it
The oil could be coming from the intake valley cover. If that is the case, you need to remove the intake to get to the cover. Once the cover is removed, there is a gasket under it and if it is damaged, worn oil can leak in the area that you mention. Keep in mind that the leak can be somewhere else and the oil ends up in that area. Try to clean the spot well, and double check.
