The start of my diagnostics

Right, finally decided to have a look at my car today, had a quick scout about above and below with a lamp and the only thing I could find were shards/pieces of clean alloy looking metal on top of my engine block (under my inlet) accompanied by hods of oil!   

The little hard plastic/rubber bung that sits onto the flywheel housing was also out but couldn't see anything down there. I had a lot of engine oil along the bottom of my exhaust and very little in the engine but couldn't find any holes in my block   

Header tank is half full and my catch tank is empty (so doesn't look like its come from my breather), any ideas   

Took my intercooler off and induction kit but it was chucking it down so ill have a look further another day, still couldn't see anything so I guess its a case of keep looking! (strange how ive got bits of metal that weren't there before and cant see a hole!)

They normally hole under the water x over pipe

Hmmm now that's what I was thinking!

Cant see till I take my inlet off due to the amount of oil but its looking favourite and the oil was all over the underneath of my bonnet   

Doesn't sound good mate, as drew says it's most likely shoved a rod through the block under the water pipe
