That Metal canister just below the washer fluid tank.Has a pair of rubber lines that go to hard lines.I think its the EGR canister.not too sure.on the passenger side.

It wasn't leaking yesterday.Now I see oil from it down to the crossmember.I look at the caniseter and theres a hole there like there was a plug of some sort there but not too sure.Why would it just do that to me overnight? :rant:

thats sounds like the charcoal cannister, its job it to filter out vapors from the gas tank.

it sounds like either, its gas coming out (over full?) or on the other side its plugged into the motor so maybe its siphoning oil out of the crankcase?

I had to unflood it yesterday then I noticed it leaking today.But I think I might have put too much oil in it.Is it supposed to have a plug there or is it supposed to be like that?

BTW Mike love the pic in your sig. :bigok: Nice SA

i like that sa too, its one of the factory 79 gtu cars, they had it at sevenstock, its cool everything is a bolt on :bigthumg: .

the cannister is supposed to be open at the bottom, i think your problem is related to the flooding/ oil thing

i wouldnt worry about it
