My truck is not losing any antifreeze, but oil is leaking on both sides of the motor right underneathe where the exhaust connects to the motor. I think thats the head gasket. When I stop and turn the truck off, oil is leaking from the passenger side onto the exhaust and making smoke come up. The valve covers aren't leaking. The cold air doesn't work, but the hot air blows hot but not as hot as it should be. There is oil around the starter, and a lilttle drip of oil is on the bottom of where the trasmission is connected to the motor.

Leaking oil off your headgasket? esh. Have you lost any power? If not it's probably around that instead of it. How sure are you about the valve covers?

I'm sure it's not the valve cover gaskets. I looked all around and I don't see any oil leaking from them. I wonder if it could be the oil pump leaking? Does anyone know where the oil pump is on the truck? The truck is not losing power. When you stop and turn the truck off, you can see alot of smoke and the smell of oil burning. The oil is leaking onto the exhaust. It's embarrassing!!! HELP HELP HELP
