I did the OFHG and VCG about 2 years ago, and from what I can see from underneath (without the stiffening plate removed), the oil isn't coming from either of those places. I intend to fix the weeping PS lines first and see if the spots on the driveway stop appearing. Back when I had oil leaks before, I'm sure a lot of oil collected in the foam on top of the stiffening plate. I'm hoping this time it's a case of PS fluid making it way onto the plate and mixing with the old oil, then dripping from the front hole in the plate.
