I have an oil leak coming from the front area of the cylinder head, between the head and the block, under the exhaust manifold. Is there a quick fix for this without replacing the head gasket?
Please help with your expert advice. Thanks.

it only means that the cylinder head gasket is bad.
maybe a warped cylinder head too.
if the cylinder head bolts are loose, then you may re-torque them. if not, then just change the gasket.
your engine isn't that difficult to do (but you may need a tool to pull the stud on the timing chain rail).

hi the torque settings are 55nm and then pull in though 90 deg and then leave it to settle for 10mins and then pull it though 90 again, but i relay think you should think befor you do thisas the head bolts are streatch bolts and if you release the head you should replace the head gasket
