Oxygen and fuel go into the pistons through valves and force the gas to come out through the exhaust pipe. Oil lubricates the parts around the engine. The problem appears when any parts within the cycle are damaged or worn, or any activity is out of time. This is when the exhaust leaks liquid or oil.
