Hello All - I have an oil leak coming from the bottom cylinder bolts on the left side of the engine. No a lot of oil, but still messy. My mechanic says the fix is to pull the cylinders and replace the gasket or O ring - I think he said O ring. I use a quart every 6-7 hours - slightly more than normal. I just hate to pull the cylinders - a lot of labor, but also always risky. Any advice?

Thanks
