ok i went and looked at the 99 diesel i ahve contemplating about... 88xxx miles 99 blah blah with the badges on the fender, so after looking over the grille area the Psd was a lil hungry and snagged a lil bird in her grille and yes its still there after they prepped it for the lot i told the sales dude he was rollin... so anyway he liek well we are giving u a nice pet to go with your truck... ok so to the motor
open the hood and its fairly clean in the bay 2 new battereis and piping and such looks fairly clean. so i look at the pass side pipe comine from the intercooler gogi nto the turbo and notice right behind the rad and cooler the pip is black right where the rubber connectors are and then the pipe goes back to the normal gry color? is this jsut a tighenting up the pipe clamp issue or more serious? alkso looked like a lil seepage right uner a bolt down cover on top of the motor, jsut under the black PSD plastic housein... should i be worried or no??? also i didn't drive it yet but seems like there is a driveshaft seal leakign at the pig? and maybe a lil seeping from the dif cover should i ahve them fix it and hsould i be owrried about possible ring damage?

low------The rubber hose/clamp thing is no big deal. Just try and tighten clamps and if it doesn't work just buy a new GM hose and those heavy duty GM clamps. The other engine issue I would have to see.
