Any neon owners had this problem???
Ok, after many hours in the garage i found that my timing cover is fubared! as in leakin oil like crazy near the header flange, Has anyone else had this problem or had their's changed?
I think it might have gotten too hot and melted..........good thing i payed for the fancy ceramic header!!
thats just my guess.

The timing cover doesn't hold any oil. You can remove it completely and only have to worry about rocks/debris finding their way between the belt and gears...
Have you removed the timing belt cover to see if the leak is coming from the cam seal(s) on that side? Could it just be a valve cover gasket?
Best of luck!
