massive oil leak in wheel well??

[2002tahoegarbage]

I have a 2002 Tahoe with 219k miles, i know damn well it has a rear main seal leak but i don't remember having to add 2 quarts every day, and my wheel wells are covered in oil, the underneath is covered in oil but there's no oil on my suspension parts or anything so have no clue why there's oil absolutely everywhere in my wheel wells

Transfer Case leaking? Also, have you looked from the top down?

Sure you dont have an oil cooler line leaking?

ID10T error. The transfer case would NOT make your engine oil disappear. Sorry about that.

That said, the only places you could be leaking oil is, as said above, the oil cooler lines, or engine seals. Base on your description, maybe you're leaking through a head gasket? Maybe check your oil for water infiltration?

The way I read the original post, it may not be engine oil. I had a problem with the brake cylinder that sprayed brake fluid in my driver's side wheel well.

A bunch of photos might be helpful to see what is going on. Start snapping away and post... It would be a big help.

Are you actually adding 2 quarts a day? or is that phrasing to indicate that there's oil everywhere?

All 4 wheel wells are covered in oil?

Are the inside of the wheels covered in oil?
