oil leak/gasket?

[samg1988]

noticed my car was leaking some sort of oil when i left it park for a while. had a friend look at it who seems to think its the gasket?

i know very little about cars mechanically.

would this make sense?

im gna check the oil level tomorrow morning anyways.

my mate said something about a rocker cover being bust aswell. :S

check the area where the sump and the bottom end meet there is a rubber gasket in there that perrishes.
check the sump plug for signs of leakage
also check the gearbox , around the selector rod and between the joints may leak

thats the same gasket that edde was referring to. The rocker gasket going is a very common problem on these engines. Pretty straightforward job and doesn't take very long.
