That looks like the timing belt tensioner... nothing should or will be leaking from there. It's leaking from above and then dripping down...
Yes, those rubber mounts often go undetected... see the last post on this thread.

Yeah that "control arm no. 2" is common, most people don't catch them when diagnosing front end suspension problems even when there is a lot of info on this board about them.
I had Daizen caster arm bushings for a little while but it turned out that I was sent the 98-00 instead of the 01-05 that I needed. So I ditched those and went for the Nagisa ones. Never looked back since and I love them!

That's nice.... but anything with a Pillow ball mount, I can be assured it will be noisy. Seeing that you have the wastgate dumping into atmosphere... I wouldn't be surprised that noise just doesn't seem bother you...
So were you able to use the Dizen?
We used to use pour 2-part poly_ _ _ _ adhesive/fillers to similar type motor mounts to firm them up. I think it would really make a noticeable difference applying it to the suspension mounts too.

I had the Daizens for a little while but they didn't fit like they were suppose to, obviously. So I gave them to my buddy to and he installed them on his 98-00 GS and they fit like a glove.
And yea, my car isn't the quitest car around

If I remember right, they were just under 700 after shipping. Shipping was only about a week wait. But I think now they are right around $800 shipped. Maybe a bit less than that. I hear you on the Figs stuff, they will be cheaper I'm sure but you'll have to wait a while as with his products it requires patience.

Ya the newer (with the flat area before the bushing) LCA #2s have a larger diameter bushing than the early models.
