Default is that the oil pressure sensor?! this is on the very front, that plate is what goes into the snub..

Default ah, couldn't really see from the pic...

Didn't realize it was the front of the oilpan when I looked at it. regardless, there is a good chance that there's an o-ring or seal of some sort behind it... might be worth looking at. Otherwise, it's oil from ontop of that bolt running down, which means upper oil pan seal or potentially the front crank seal?

I'm shooting in the dark though, but those are just some ideas off the top of my head.

good luck with the hunt!
