I seem to have an engine oil leak from the front of the engine . It looks like its coming from a hose. I know it has a trans. cooler and it has hoses going to the rad. My question is does it also have an oil cooler that has hoses running to front of engine.

It could be a leaking intercooler hose...specifically the CAC hose. A couple years back I had a problem with an oil leak at the front of the vehicle and I pinpointed it to the CAC hose.

I did an install article on how to replace it:

Just found this place. I saw your post on the cac hose replacement. I need to start using your Ford dealer. Mine wanted $800 to replace the 4 cac hoses!! I'm going to do it myself, and learn how to work on my Excursion.. I'm not a mechanic, I'm a lover, but I'm tired of them ripping me off! $400 labor to replace the alternator! Screw them.
