2016 Impreza, High Pressure Oil Leak

[CoolLadWithADad]

Afternoon y'all,

My 2016 Impreza base model is spraying oil around the bottom driver side of the engine bay, it's coming out as a fine mist and getting all over the engine bay. I had to replace The drive belt on the side of the road because all the oil that had sprayed on it had melted it. I can tell that it's on the bottom driver side because when I start driving I can hear the oil spraying through the spokes of the driver side front wheel.

Any idea of what this could be?

Hard to see from here... have you tried spraying/cleaning it all off and then starting the car while you look?

Not quite yet, that's the plan this weekend

Be sure that you don't run it low on oil. Cleaning then looking is step one. It'll likely be obvious. Let us know how it goes. Pics are fun too!

Will do! Thank you!
