Oil Leak

1997 Eclipse 2.0 Turbo. Have an oil leak, leaving a small amount of oil on the ground near front drivers side. I have cleaned the front of the engine, cannot get to the back. Oil appears to be coming from between the block & exhaust manifold....is this possible & if so what is the cause. Not blowing any colored smoke from tail pipe. If not possible, any suggestions where the leak is [8D].

you need to replace gasket, also check your manifold fittings.
