Re: Strange oil leak
Most likely, check your hoses for any pinhole leaks that might've shot antifreeze up there. Otherwise if it is an oil leak next to the fuel injectors something's very wrong

Re: Strange oil leak
definitely dirty antifreeze, no oil is up that high on the engine. check your thermostat housing gasket or the coolant lines running to the throttle body
