Hello,

My 2000 Saab 9-3 Turbo (4cyl) has a small oil leak from the bottom side of one of the screws that holds the top portion of the motor, valve covers, to the bottom. Is not engough to drip. More of a sludge. But none of the other bolts has this from the bottom. A better idea is if you were standing in the front of the car looking at the motor, the screw is the fartest one right. Motor has oil, no weird smells or anything out of the norm. I think its a washer that could not be making a seal correctly, what do you guys think?
