Either PS Fluid or the OFHG needs to be replaced.

Dark, looks like oil. Flushed the p/s fluid today, wasn't low. Will wipe down and see what's what. Here's the pic:

Looks like the Vanos oil line....does the other end come up to the front and have what looks like a large bolt through the end?

Well, the pic above is the front.. left side of the pic there's something that looks like a bolt, not sure if that's what you mean. Will take a took again tomorrow, and take some better pics. If it is a vanos line, is it a hard fix to swap in a new hose (assuming it's the hose that's the problem)?

Thanks for the diagram!
Seems to be in the spot indicated by the diagram, but looks different from the part both in the diagram and on ecs... will get a closer look tomorrow.

See if it's loose first and if you can tighten it....that MAY solve your issue depending on where it's leaking from. If it's leaking on the crimped portion you will need a new line and washers as well.
