Bad oil leak-timing belt cover
#21
To be clear, the front of the motor has the timing belt and faces the passenger side. The REAR of the motor also has cam seals, distributor, and cam shaft sensor and faces the drivers side of the car.
I thought you were here to get help and you seem to have a handle on it. Have a good night.

I do not know what you would call the side facing the firewall, the left side? I am stumped, I can not figure out the leak, although it appears that the likely sources have been ruled out. Tomorrow I will stare it down further, and pour more oil into the motor to try and pinpoint it, thanks for the help so far.

Yeah......
I dont know where you got that from, but there is no such motor EVER in an 850.. All 850 motors start with B52...
In 95 there were only 4 motors with 3 fuel system options.. 2 motors only available in the US and only 1 fuel system available in the US Motronic 4.3... the motors only came in a 2.3L (turbo) or a 2.4L ( N/A)
Around the world there was a 10 valve 2.0L motor and a TDI
And as far as I can tell B3440 is not even a volvo motor.. Its a chevy avalanche motor

Do the PCV at the same time.. otherwise youll just end up popping out the seals again or even worse you could pop a RMS

I tore down the intake manifold (cleaned the TB and manifold while it was off) and cleaned/replaced the PCV system and all lines today, no problems other than with the 2 lower bolts on the manifold. Extension city on them!There is nothing sweeter than putting it back together and it cranks strong on the first pull.
Tomorrow I will do the cam seals.
Thank you to the forum and all the guys who post here, it really made it easy.

Cool. If the belt is wet, I would go ahead and replace it as well. Do you know the history of the belt, rollers, and tensioner? I seen some instructions where a guy actually secured the belt to the other cam sprocket and roller, pulled a cam off and replaced the seal and put the cam back on.
