I'm not sure what happened but it seemed to be leaking around the lowest corner on passenger side.

Piston #5, left intake lifter went out which caused the bearing in the cam follower to lock up and in turn wiped out a cam lobe. Since I bought the wrong cam phaser bolts :deeplist: we couldn't install the Hot Rod cams :deeplist: to fix the issue (ALWAYS replace broke parts with something that makes more noise) and got VERY lucky my buddy had a stock cam with a phaser still attached.
