Asking.....

Is that the correct mileage.................13,300 on the car? Seems strange to have the problems you encountered at that mileage.

Probably 133,000 is more like the OP's mileage, but where exactly is the oil leak?

If there is talk of yanking the engine, my thoughts are possibly a leaking front or rear main seal.

Yes the car has 133,000. Looks like it'll be cheaper to buy a good used engine. Can get one with 12,000 miles for $1,400.00 delivered and with carfax.
