is it safe to drive the truck with the minor oil leak from behind the water pump... the new pump is not leaking coolant... just oil from a bad o ring i assume. just need to know has anyone ever had this issue and is it safe to drive till i can get the time to replace the o ring

The higher the rpms reach the more pressure will increase so it may start leaking alot more?! Never no really. Should be fine aslong as you keep an eye on the oil level and pressure
