I have a 2004 Nissan-Datsun Truck Frontier 2WD V6-3.3L (VG33E) (80K+ miles) and I have an oil leak. I discovered it when my starter had failed. When I replaced it it was coated with oil and once removed I could see oil leaking directly above it.... possibly the reason for the failure. Any ideas for the cause of the leak?
