When I first looked, I assumed from your flightpath (incorrectly it appears looking again) that your wing sliced into it, resulting in your wing parting company but you hurtling onwards out of shot. Mind you, I have given up recording as, when I play back the track, half of what I recorded isn't displayed or CoD crashes to desktop.

the oil is from the right engine...is going from left side of the engine over the right wing, then under the tail to the left side, coz he is using the left rudder and is slipping

I think that's oil. Fuel is a vapory white trail and smoke, well, you'll know it when you see it as it's much more pronounced.

The best thing about such an oil leak? Pause the game and move the external camera behind the leaking engine looking forward, you'll see that the oil comes out in droplets that swirl and rotate in the airflow
