Easiest: clean w/ brake cleaner, see if new oil develops
Yeah! That's exactly what I did a few days ago. If it is a leak it is a very tiny leak so I am not worried at the moment. When the time comes to do the TB, I will see what is up. BTW some guy on youtube used the old TB with a block of wood like a strap wrench to hold the cam gear still and got that nut off. Might try that if I decide to change the seals.

Since we're on the subject, would you guys recommend changing the seals if it is not leaking? The car has about 150k miles and I do plan on keep it as long as possible. I would hate to do a TB job at like around 170K, not change the seals and then it starts leaking soon after!
