1998 S70 oil leak

What is a flametrap and where can it be found?

I have an oil leak on the right side (drivers side). Will leave spots and it is obvious underneath that it is on the right side of engine. My thinking is that it is a seal (is it the rear on the right? I'm used to saabs and not the volvo just yet). BUT because it is a turbo.... any turbo part there that could leak oil?

Anyway thanks for any advice as I'm going to venture into a different swedish car - coming from non-turbo saabs to a turbo volvo.

Thanks for any advice on what to look for ... and what to do for preventative maintenance ...oh it has 107k miles.

Brian
