Sounds vaguely indecent.

But the good news is that the stealers have crawled all over it and say they are uncertain where the oil is coming from. I dug out my old AA Continental Motoring book which has exploded diagrams of the car and translations into 8 languages [although nothing from the estimate] and it seems that as they aren't really certain, they suspect either a head gasket, or a rocker cover gasket or a seal round an oil pump(?). In any event I am reassured that nothing horrid has happened and can continue as before, dripping gently onto the grass.
