Hi ive recently bought a mk3 polo and there seems to be a leak around the bottom of the dizzy which is spaying up around the the head its hard to pinpoint the leak as its made quite a mess. Anyone experienced a similar leak and have any pointers to what it is?

Perhaps if you clean up the surrounding area and then run the engine for a few minutes it'll be more obvious where the oil is leaking from.
