Do any of your gauges flicker when you hear the sparking? it sounds like you have a worn through power lead or spark plug wire thats crossing current to a ground, such as your engine, exhaust manifold or frame. there are casting numbers on your engine and you can look them up online for year make and model of car they were put in as well as place of manufacture, if any info doesnt match with what you know then its a different motor. you can also ask the dealer to look up which motor by casting number belongs in your car. however it could be you had a bad valve cover and the machanic replaced it with a used one that was dirty or a different color. or it could simply be dirty from the mechanic not cleaning up after himself.

Where was the oil leaking from?
told it was from the gasket
told it was from the gasket
and some may from the front right corner of the engine.
Sorry donald. Ther e are Oil Pan Gaskets, Valve cover gaskets, oil filter gaskets. Not sure what you have there. Not sure what you mean 'Heard Sparks'
I am not a mechanic. Those terms are known by me only when you mentioned them. But can you tell me how can I see whether the engine is the original one with the vehicle according to my vehicle VIN number.
Because the color is shinyier before.
was like bright silver but now it is kind of brown on the top.
by sparks I mean little sound like popcorn getting done in microwave but only slighter.
i think there is something wrong with those wires and there is some powder on my battery newly appeared. hope it will not take forever to find that malfunctioning wire. it sparks a lot when braking and the brake is recently fixed. maybe should start from there? or fix the clamp on the battery? tired to spend more money on that vehicle. looks like generating more issues when fixing them.
thanks for the solution.
