[QUOTE="6.0 Tech, post: 1510784, member: 23001"] Stc will only cause an external leak if it completely blows and breaks the rear cover. Oil sender would cause your issue, as would oil feed line to the turbo, oil cooler gaskets, etc. Can you watch it drip? Is it coming from the valley? If its judt getting on the starter glow plug harnes is likely, cac boots also like to get porous and cause leaks, but you cant watch them drip typically. In answer to your question about an internal leak, no. Those stay internal and cause hard starts. Only internal leak that will go ext e rnal is if the stc breaks the rear cover as i said before. I have only seen a handful that have broken the cover though. And are you sur the leak is coming from thst high? The rear cover gasket likes to leak at where it seals to the bedplate, as does the front cover and it will run back along the bedplate seam, bedplates are also fairly common to leak, and cam and crank sensor o rings as well. All those, aside fromthe cam sensor as its on the drivers side, will cause oil to get on the starter. [/QUOTE]
