Question

Anyone had oil leak around sump area but not from drain plug? I think it might be the sump gasket but haven't had time to fully check.

have seen leaks from the seal around the oil filter, especially if using a non gen unit. otherwise, they can have slight leaks from the engine rear crank seals, tht can run round the seam and drip off.

Cheers...will check oil filter as I'm using non-gen item. It's only a small drip...

Is the seal location inline with the oil sump...above it or near enough for oil to run down it?
