my xantia's engine looks dirty, oil is seen clearly on many parts of it, but when watching any leak from bottom of the car, i could not find any at all, is that nromal??
something else, what about washing the engine?? using the hand car wash -high pressurised water- at many stations while the engine is on.., is that safe??
cheers.
Possible leak??

Not much point in spraying water over the engine without using a degreaser first. I do my engine bays twice a year. Spray with gunk, then hose it off - covering the alternator first.
