What seems to be leaking here?

[lankybob]

My sisters car has recently started dripping oil at quite a rate.
It seems to me like the oil is coming from somewhere like the rocker cover but then again, I don't know too much.
This is all when she wants a new car (another thread) so would this be worth fixing?
The car, BTW is an S reg Citroen Saxo.

From what I can see from the picture it looks like the rocker cover gasket has gone which will only be a few quid. Really need a bigger picture though.

Yeah, these were sent off her phone, I will get a bigger one.

In my professional opinion, I can tell you that oil is leaking from your engine.

Shows how much your profession opinion is worth - it's his sister's engine.

Rocker cover gaskets frequently go on this engine, however could also be the head gasket as these can also leak oil.

Hopefully bigger pictures!
It took me about 10 minutes to find the bonnet release, it's well concealed on the wrong side of the car!

Looks like a rocker cover gasket. Easy fix.

Rocker cover if it's that high up. Should be a five quid part and a ten minute job to change it.
