    Update...... Some of the mystries have been solved. The tire (front pass) was worn at angle.... The vx was driven after the accident, with the wheel bent at slight angle.
    The 2nd was the underside. I have found that in the accident the corner of the battery tray punched a hole in the valve cover. I suspect that the residue is all oilly soot from the engine hole. All the residue is under and around the front corner.
    Once again the vehicle was driven after the accident with a hole in the valve cover throwing oil.

    So you think all the black stuff is oil spray residue?
    I took Pic #2 from driver's side looking toward passenger side, approximately under the driver door. Wonder how all those areas facing outward or to the rear, got so uniformly covered from a leak on passenger side valve cover??? Weird huh!

    Remember that life is not measured in the breaths you take, but rather in the moments that take your breath away.
