I just looked and the front of my 2022 Ford GT is leaking oil , where would it be coming from?

Most likely a hydraulic leak from a fitting
Or the power steering rack
Just my guess

On my 2021 it was the rack and pinion and ride height hydraulics.

Afraid of something like that, looks like a big job to get to any of that

The actuator for the coal chutes is a known and common leak site. Need to pull the front pan, but can be seen up on a lift. None of the fixes is cheap. If you are still under warranty, get it into the shop pronto. You don't mention where you are, but Italian Joe at Milliken Ford in Detroit is the best.

As Frank mentioned I had this fixed right before my warranty ran out and 4100 miles. I noticed leaking again right before the last Rally and at around 6000 miles. I had car dropped to Sanderson Ford and Brian Nailer with help from Joe bring the parts from Detroit made it possible to run my car at Apex. The pan holds lots of oil before you will see any drips and the parts are sometimes not available,IMG_0420.jpgIMG_0426 (1).jpg

Our aero actuator has been replaced as well.

Hello Elleerin, as most of the guys have already mentioned the most likely is a coal chute acuator but could also be as other have mentioned a rack and pinion or a hydraulic line. Currently the coal chute acuator is on back order, if you have any further questions feel free to message me.

Joe.
