Message	AAAaalright. I was going changing the oil this weekend when I got to giving things a closer look. It doesn't look good. Can someone please evaluate these images to the best of their knowledge? My service manual is on the way, but won't arrive for another couple of days. Thanks Pic #1 Near the wheel. I'm not sure what this is exactly. A joint of some sort. Looks to be cracked, I didn't see that it was cracked when I was under the car, but the picture seems to say otherwise. Pic #2-#4 I've circled the part that seems to be missing a bolt and has shifted over. I'm not exactly thrilled about this as it looks to be a pain in the ass to shift back over and put a bolt back in there. Can anyone tell me what this part is and what its function is? Pic #2 Pic #3 Pic #4 The final pic is a shot from directly under the car. The oil filter was just removed when I spied some sludge on the block. Looks to me like a leak from the back of the block. I'm very ignorant though and may be wrong. Pic #5 Thanks a ton, Alex
