Well, not much to say about the infamous cam tower oil leak - it is a very well known with certain years of the 5.7 engine. It started as a barely noticeable seep of around 83,000 miles and gradually turned into oil dripping on exhaust header and burning off. I finally took it in around 106,000 miles when small puddles of oil were detected on the ground. Fortunately I had purchased an extended warranty which covered the repair minus a small deductible.
I will note it took 5 trips to the dealership to finally get it repaired as they wanted to "fix" other things they thought was causing this leak after I stated many times it was the cam tower. I guess they wanted to milk my warranty company for as much as they could before actually fixing it, fortunately I drove a dealer loaner free of charge - so, yeah.
