"I have a 2005 Volvo 5.0 OSI-E
"I have a 2005 Volvo 5.0 OSI-E with 135 hours. After pulling it out of storage (where it has been for the last 3 months) and running on the driveway with hose, I noticed that the engine mount bolt, directly below the exhuast manifold was covered in rust (and had a very, very, small amount of water on/around it). I also noticed that the at the riser gasket there is a small rust trail, but it is bone dry. I can't for the life of me find the leak. A put a paper towel on the engine mount area and it stayed dry whenthe engine was running. Is it possible a small amount of water spit out of the leak area when the engine was cold, and after it warmed up it would no longer leak? Any thoughts? Am I looking at a major problem in the making here?
Thanks."
