Oil leak

I have a 98 Chevy S-10 2.2L with 95K miles, recently my pickup is leaking oil and I've noticed a slight knocking sound in the engine when I accelerate, I know there is a problem but how big is it and what will it cost. Thanks

the oil leak isn't usually a big deal, maybe a seal or gasket, but the knocking is probably a rod, which is bad, might as well rebuild it...my mom had a mustang that had that problem and it through a rod straight through the engine block...be careful, expensive fix if that's the problem..
