I have developed a small leak toward the front of the engine in my Aviator. Before I spend hours on the hunt anyone know of common places these cars develop oil leaks?

Thanks
 






I just went for an oil change at the Ford dealer. The man that did the change noted there was an oil leak up front. Funny I thought, as it uses only one quart between changes (5K). I told him, maybe I spilled some when I added oil.

Got home and looked, sure enough it was wet. Then I remembered I recently added power steering fluid and checked again, it was low. That's the leak. Called back up the dealer to make an appointment. He said it was probably the high pressure hose coming off of the power steering pump, as it is a common problem.
