    Small oil leak where is it coming from?

    I was changing my oil and noticed the under tray looked wet/ dirty. I removed them and noticed I have some oil on the bottom of the transmission and a small amount on the bell housing. No oil makes it to the ground. Where could this be coming from?

    Primary first culprit is the CPV, mine leaked and I had oil in the same place. A member here sells Viton replacements. Search around the forum for more info.

        How long ago did you replace it and did you replace it with the upgraded o-ring?

          That looks like transmission fluid. Engine oil would be brown.

          Likely transmission case halves or input shaft. I have a similar leak from case halves. As long as it's not pooling it's probably not an issue.

            Last year with the o ring from the forum member that sells them.

              Thanks for the response on my next oil change I’ll see if it smells like trans fluid
