Saw some spotting in the slot I usually park in at work ("my" spot out in the north 40 ). Looks like a collection of drops over several days/weeks. Didn't look and feel like the usual motor oil spot. Thinking maybe coolant.. leaking water pump? (does coolant leave residual staining on asphalt?) Checked under my truck and saw engine oil on fwd undercarriage and around the oil pan seating. Felt around the oil filter but dry, and no oil around the drain plug. Does synthetic oil "stain" different that petroleum oil? (first time using synthetic in a vehicle). Where is it coming from? Oil level was good, and I had changed oil & filter about 5 weeks ago.
