Answer
Hi,Are you sure that the isn't coming from the oil pressure sending unit?Because there isn't any pressurized oil going through the timing cover and the sender (if I'm not mistaken) is in the same general area.However timing cover leaks are common,they are more of a seepage varitey.Replacing the timing cover seal is not really a big job.I know I like to see them.But you shouldn't have to pay more than 5 hours labor for the job.
