Hey im new here recently bought my 90 gs and turboed it. but before i started turboing it. i noticed i was leaking oil. i got under and checked it and it seemed to be coming from my oil pan. so then i said screw it, started adding the turbo and such got everything on. but i guess the oil pan wasnt the problem. or may still be. i took a video of it and maybe someone can direct me to where it could be coming from. when the car is on. itll leak a good drop every 10-15 seconds. and please note it was leaking like this BEFORE I DID THE TURBO. my engine is pretty damn clean as well and from where i looked i can not see where it could be coming from.

any leak you have (espcially oil pan gasket and valve cover) will be pretty much forced out any weak spots. You should fix any leaks you find before even adding a turbo. It can and will get messy. Likely to spray everywhere and make the leak hard to find. Wipe the engine clean and let it idle to operating temp then check if still clean take it around the block (stay out of boost as much as possible) then check. if still nothing take it around again and briefly get into boost and check it. get a $6 led flash light from autozone ( Love those things) if you have too. You'll find it dont worry you already know general area so that helps. For example I remember a time at willow springs when our 1100hp 40 psi of boost methanol time attack monster did this. It sprayed everywhere even under the car and leaked all day. Finally at the end of the day we found out it was from a small hole in the timing cover (there from the factory). machined a plug and never had a problem.
