Whats this bolt on my engine?

Mark_Dj

I noticed a slight oil leak on my car from the top head, probably a gasket? But when I took a picture from the rear I noticed a bolt thats not fixed all the way in notsure.gif . What can it be, and what do you make of the oil leak :problem:

Red is oil leak area and white is the bolt in pics :razz:

looks like a manifold bolt not used for the turbo mani

So it's like a spare? Looking at the manifold they look alike. Cheers

Also whats the pipe on the top picture right hand side, it looks like it has another pipe going into it but it's not connected, well loose? Cheers

oil coming from the feed for whatever that ancilliary is

I think it might be around the area I have take on this picture from the side, maybe a gasket at the top of this notsure.gif . But then again it could be from that thing to the right hand side above.Cheers
