I have an Indy going to have a look at this next week but I have oil coming down the back of the engine which after a bit of driving gives noticeable waftes of oil smoke once stationary.
Any ideas of just how bad/expensive this is going to be?

Which side of the engine is it coming from?
Could be
a split oil filter seal
Possible leak around the Vacuum Pump
Oil cooler seal
is there any oil in the centre of the V?Vehicles

No oil in the V, oil at the bulk head but doesn't seem to lose much oil. Had the clutch done a civil,e of weeks ago and they said the whole area at the back of the engine was covered I oil.
Not seeing any puddles in the floor either.
Been a suggestion of an oil leak from the turbo?Disco 3 2.7 TDV6 55 Buckingham Blue Base

Could be oil feed pipe to the turbo or could be a rear camshaft oil seal. More info/photos needed, ideally.

I am only going by the feedback from the guy who did the clutch and more importantly the smoke so no photos.
