Recently I drove my Firebird for about 3 hours and about half way when I pulled to a light I noticed smoke coming from under the hood and out the passenger side from under the car. I pulled off to check and discovered that it was oil leaking on top of the catalytic converter and exhaust pipe. I check the oil and it had plenty in it so it is a slow leak that seems to only smoke when the exhaust pipe is hot. Could yall please tell me what is leaking because I recently had a o-ring inside the engine replaced and it still seems to leak? Thank you

Hi there,

You will need to wash it dawn and check for fresh leaks after a drive, check rocker covers as they often leak, if unsure return it to who did the work and get them to re check for a problem with the work they did. Start here.
