About 40 years ago I had a similar leak in my Corsa. I opened the engine
lid only to find everything covered with oil. I was unable to see what was
leaking. After further inspection, I discovered a very tiny pin hole in the
oil filter. The pin hole was facing toward the engine. A tiny stream of oil
was being sprayed onto the harmonic balancer which was slinging it all over
the engine.
