Thanks Ned. Where did you get the timing pin tool? Rusty? I did find the pdf's for the IP rr on the OM 606 engine. The CD is so cumbersome and one has to dig through the individual pdf's. Here they are if anyone cares: IP RR: 07.1-8410 Pos. sensor: 07.1-8240 Timing device: 07.1-8050 Timing of IP:

I think you're going to need to get the car up so that you can get under it while the engine is running to see where the oil is coming from. If I had to guess, I'd say it was an oil cooler line spraying onto the side of the pan. This would only happen under pressure. There might be an oil level
