95XT engine oil leak

[UHDGrazer]

i purchased a 95XT a few months ago with a slow oil leak. at first i thought it was a slow hydraulic leak but i now know that it is engine oil dripping. i can't find the leak anywhere obvious so does anyone have any advice or experience with the cummins engine in these? i need some direction so i can narrow my search. Thanks

From what I can tell, it looks like a 4BT. Front and rear main seals are a common leakage point, as well as the tappet cover on the side of the block. Depending on the style of crankcase ventilation, that can be a leakage source as well. So, basically, it could be leaking from anywhere....
Best thing to do is wash it down the best you can, I typically use engine degreaser, then check it after a couple of hours of use to try to trace the leak.
