Well the stupid answer is:
unless there is a hole in your engine block.....

you have a leaky gasket/seal.

Call up a dealer and see what they say about a replacement seal in that area or something that can vibrate loose and let oil out.
How much oil is coming out and when is it coming out?

probaly the head gasket i personalyhave instaled 3 engines in f4i's and see no such hole the only hole thats around is the coolant block drain the dealer more than likely wants you to spend a lot of money with them my suggestion is go out and buy a clymer manual its only 20.00 best investment
