[928uk] Oil leak

Could be the cam-box gasket leaking, or the power steering hose.

If you take the air intake hose off and feel along the bottom edge of 
the cam-box and along the hoses that run along the inner wing in that 
area, you should find it. Note that if it is the high pressure Power 
steering hose, the oil may not be on the hose, but where it is spraying 
onto.

Also a good idea to check the level in the PS reservoir, and on the 
engine dipstick.

Hi All,
I hope you are all enjoying the fine weather and footy.

I noticed a small area. Of oil on the garage floor, passenger side as you look at front of the car. Started her up and drove it out of the garage after a couple of minutes running, I noticed a burning oil smell and smoke coming from around the rear of engine, seems to be under or around the radiator plastic water reservoir. It’s burning off on something hot but can’t see it. Not sure if it’s engine oil or other. Any ideas please would be welcome?

Many thanks
