I have a head gasket leak on the drivers side closest to the fire wall. I am getting no loss of anti freeze or water. It is the head gasket I had a few people look at it. The leak really doesnt bother me. I have been driving the truck for 5 months now no issues. My question is I want to pull my jeep with the blazer, will the extra weight/pressure on the motor cause anything more than the oil leak.

just my opinion but I wouldn't drive it if it where my truck and leaking any fluids, what happens if it blows completely out and you lose all your oil in a matter of minutes, then what.

Is it just humid from oil or is oil running. If running, replace the head gaskets. The trailer load will not increase the pressure in the combustion chambers, which is arround 60 bar during ingnition (some 420 PSI). With or without trailer.
