I just bought a 08 6.4 with 135k. Had it about a week with no issues. went and did a oil change and noticed a drip of oil. After a long drive I got out of the truck and noticed oil everywhere on the truck. Checked the oil and i was 4 quarts low. Its blowing oil out of the truck somewhere on the passenger side but I cant find it. Its dripping pure clean oil out when I fill it and drive. Also as it sits up to a point. I've crawled under but a massive steel plate blocks me from seeing anything under the motor. Anyone seen this before?

Thank you. I looked down from the top of the motor. There's no oil in the valley and I cant see any from the top of the turbo but ill put a mirror down and see if I can see from under the turbo. Its hard to tell it looks like its coming from the side of the block area under the head but it could be closer to the back. Its so hard this engine bay is tighter than a frogs @ss

Found it. There's a 90 little rubber elbow that attaches the pcv hose to the block that was dry rotted. It was a beast to get to. Had to remove the starter and use long bent needle nose to unclip squeeze clamps all by feel with one hand. $5 dollar part and a few hours but probably saved a few thousand.
You mid showing me where that is I'm having the same problem
