240 for valve cover gasket leak and 60 for the oil and filter.
First noticed oil on the bottom of the engine then after some time noticed little puddles on the floor only after being ran.
Brought to the mechanic and they didn't even want to touch the car because "fixing this piece of junk will destroy some other unrelated thing".
Moral of the story stay away from GM (rebound company)
