Those 4.0L engines have one weak spot: timing cover leak on the right (passenger) side, it is rare, but it can happened… sorry for possible bad news.
Yeah, I did a little reading up on the timing cover. It is rare like you said so that does give me hope. It might be the valve cover but it doesn't seem like it at all. I sprayed the heck out of it with break clean today so I'll keep checking. I did a little more looking, there's actually a decent amount of oil residue on the front side.
