94 Taurus SHO, v6, 3.2 engine.

I have oil bing sprayed out of the back of the engine on the passenger side, I am trying to find the source of the leak.

I believe it is coming from somewhere behind the power steering pump, but I cannot actually see the source. Is there anything near that area that would cause oil to be sprayed out in that manner?


Thanks in advance.

If it is spraying it could be a n oil pressure sending unit. Crawl under and check it out.
