The oil leak is in near the firewall on the passanger side, under the downpipe, so it's not the timing cover for sure, I reselead it myself and it looks like I did a good job.

As for piston blow by, well, I'll have to pull the head one way or the other won't I? I hope they're in good shape but I can't be sure.

The whinning noise, the only thing I can think of right now is checking the alignment of all the sprockets, and the chain itself. I know it's coming from the timing components, maybe I'll get another chain and see if that will make any difference, this one is an aftermarket chain, ever since it was put on, the car made this noise.

I ordered my parts yesterday, I'll go check the pin that everyone claims is so hard to pull, I might be able to put a puller for it together. I did that before with suspension bushings and I think those are much harder to get out then a pin, but we'll see. If you want I can make one for you also if it helps any.
