I couldn't take the stench of burnt oil any longer!
Last night on my way home I took the car to Discovery to have this leak looked at that the guys in the fastlane pointed out.
Turns out it's the rocker cover gasket. The front side is shot and is leaking oil all down the front side of the motor onto the header. The guy predicts it will be about an hour of labour to replace it.
I'm thinking of calling Ford to see if this particular gasket is covered by the 100k 5 year warrenty that the drivetrain should be under. *my fingers are crossed* The guy at the dealer said they need to check the vin number or something to see if I qualify.
I'll let you guys know how it goes. B)
