Mechanic needed

My 04 WRX sprung a leak, smells like oil, on the passenger side. Read some threads and it looks to be the banjo bolt and maybe the oil feed line and hopefully nothing more major. Streamline can only see me on the 27th of March, and I left the car at Servco for two days only to have them tell me they refuse to work on my car cause it's modified. Need some help and will pay for it. I live at Subset Beach! Lol. I know, far. But I've tried and called everyone I know for help and hoping for some help here. Name is Gerald.

You sure its the banjo bolt leaking? They normally dont leak, They normally get clogged and not allow oil to flow through to the turbo. What you described sounds like oil leaking from either the valve cover gasket or possibly torn cv boot?

I just had my neighbor's mech look at it and he said exactly that about the valve cover. The cv boot may be torn too, gonna have that checked as soon as I can find someone or have to wait til the 27th at streamline where I will have them install an accessport headers and AOS. They built my block at Streamline and put in a recirculating blow off valve and aem intake even tho I told then i wanted the headers on first. Thanks for the advice!

Streamline can be crazy busy but worth it IMO. Kai is the man. I'd help out if I had a garage but I live in a condo and can't work on my car, so I've been taking my car to Streamline for everything. It's really hurting the wallet lol.
