Question This is an odd one...

Apparently I have some leaks now. So I've got milky stuff around the oil pan and under the truck but the coolant looks clean, however I'm losing some little by little. Oil is clean, but also losing about half a quart between oil changes now. They have to be leaking near the same source I would imagine if it's mixing outside the truck but not inside. I'm thinking timing cover since it's mostly near the front and I can see wet at the seams.

May be the bypass hose from the pump, to the intake as well. If it's original, wouldn't be surprising.

Clean everything off really well, and if you are feelin' really froggy, drop some UV dye into the oil, and coolant. Makes finding leaks REAL easy.
