Oil leak problem

[Powerstroker7.3]

I started to notice my truck dripping fluid and it turns out it is motor oil. It looks like it is coming from the front of the motor about half way down on the left side if you are facing the front of the truck. Could anybody tell me some possible places where it could be leaking

If it is on the front of the motor where you are describing, I would check the oil rail plug first.

The oil rail plug is not leaking oil. What other places could it be

Have you tried cleaning all of it off and then watching for where it is coming from? Sometimes that is the easiest way.

Check the V of the engine and see if oil is pooling in the various recesses. In my case the rear cover of the HPOP is leaking and slowly fills the recesses and then will spill out down the back of the engine. I also had the HPOP discharge fitting start leaking with the same symptoms.
