So i just adjusted the valves on the s and as i was backing up i noticed a small puddle of oil .? Im curious is it possible for a bit of oil to leak out during this job ? .The car was angled nose up a tad ,... slight incline leading into the garage. Its super dark out right now and i left my jack at a friends house so i cant even crawl under the car ,.. Ughhh im hoping something didnt blow . It looks as if the oil had run down around the tranny , Which is why im a little nervous, Either oil leaked a tad from the open valve or something is wrong with my tranny seal ,... Ughhhh this sucks and now im stuck waiting to find out tomorrow to see if i come out to a huge oil puddle under the car or not

ya man a little bit of oil could just have gotton out and accumulated in a consentraded spot toward the back of the motor, was most likely residual oil from where the gasket sits......i remember when i took my valve cover off, my engine was tilted as well, there was oil that accumulated....im sure your ok, just double check when its day time !! good luck !

I just did mine last weekend nose up, and oil from the valve train would run down the back left of the cylinder head where the valve cover sits by the fire wall. I had the puddle too. no worries
