Garden hose? Its not leaking oil... its bong water.

Pic of hose because saying "inserted somewhere" is as vague as a hippy at the helm of the Ady Gil.

It's more then likely just your a/c hose coming out of ur firewall dripping water it's normal .

has the previous owner fitten an intake ?? it may be just an extension off your PCV or one of the vac lines that runs through your charcoal cannister (on back of the block).. the "mechanics" that did my swap ecided to do something similar with an OEM hose instead of re-connecting it to the charcoal cannister etc..

Well then if your oil is getting empty, you have an oil leak. Get a mechanic to check it out. If its a b series and the seals werent done previously could be a few common problems such as cam seals, valve cover gasket, timing belt cover (thats where my b18 leaked from and cost me 500 to fix)

good luck

there ya go boys.. the pipe starts just below the cv joint and runs near the timing belt and is then hard to discover where it is connected.. hope this helps

Maybe its that hose where the aircon drips water when its fully blasted.
My mum's camry has a similar pipe, but its OEM.
