2000 Silverado Oil Leak Unknown

[drew.sunderland]

ok thanks for dropping by at my topic, I have a 2000 silverado 4.3 oil leak i have, replaced the oil seal 3 times, replaced the oil pan (told to do that by a mechanic), replaced the timing chain cover by a mechanic, so far i have spent $1000 on a oil leak that is still leaking, i can see oil on the bottom of the oil pan and on the front of the oil pan and that is as far as i can see because the frame is in my way and i took it to a different mechanic and he told me it was my intake gasket, i think that it is the oil lines but i came here to get someones elses opinion. Also i can here a ticking on the passenger side cylinders i dont know if this is normal or it is abnormal.

 

Please help if you can thank you very much Drew

Might be the oil pressure switch.

well that was a good idea but the leak is on the front of the engine and the oil pressure switch is in the back of the engine thanks though

After looking at the engine and I found out that the shop that I took it to fowlers car clinic Yukon, ok I found out that they broke a bolt off into the block and just put the other half back into the timing chain cover hole
