Hi everyone. I replaced the serpentine belt yesterday and noticed oil on the timing chain cover. I did some research and this appears to be a common subaru issue. I found out the engine has to be taken out to seal the leak. Is that true? I wanted to know if anyone else has had this issue and what steps took to fix and also how serious this is? Thanks in advance.
 
Well, our 2008 Tribeca recently burned through 5.5 quarts of oil. Between having a "multipoint inspection" in October and a road trip in November. Either it's burning a ton of oil (and I'm now checking it super regularly) or it hasn't been changed\topped up in months....
