Usually from the power steering pump or lines right above it.

Also possibly from the injection pump bottom plate.

Front of the engine could also be the timing case cover.

N/A OM603 300SDL? I was under the impression the w126 only ever had the turbo versions of the 603/617.

You're right.

There was no N/A 603 in a w126.

In fact the diesel w126's were only sold in the US and Canada. It was not available in Europe.

What the op has is prolly a gasser that had a n/a 603 put in it from like a w124 or w463.

Question to OP: what are the first 9 digits of your vin? then we will know for sure what it is/was
