Clicking in engine, oil leaks, but oil level is above full?

Ford Escort 1991 1.9L. 124K miles. Engine oil has been above full (1-2cm above F on dipstick) for the last 2000 miles. (Is that too full?)





Now it's lower, but still above Full. The oil leak has become worse, dripping about 10-20 drips within an hour after parking the car. It appears to be leaking from the engine block.





Today a light clicking sound started under the hood. The clicking speed increases with increasing RPM. Any ideas?Clicking in engine, oil leaks, but oil level is above full?
TOO MUCH OIL. Why do you think there is a level mark?.Clicking in engine, oil leaks, but oil level is above full?
Change your oil, and use Vavloine Hi-milage oilt!! Its cost is worth the effect!! Be cafeful not to overfill!! If its too full, it can blow seals,gaskets, and leak from all over!!! Thats alot of miles on a 4 popper, but you might get a lot more with rite maintenance procedure!!!
