I've noticed oil (brown fluid) dripping on the right side of the car almost in line with the right front tire. An independent lexus-only mechanic said I have a bad rear seal. If the rear seal was bad, wouldn't that leak be more towards the center of the engine/car?
Yes, by your description it's unlikely the culprit is the main rear seal. Best bets IMAO:
1. Rear valve cover gasket
2. Cam seals
3. P/S pump seals/hoses
I agree with smokesgtp: Valvoline Maxlife High Mileage is good stuff.
