    Oil leak

    Hi my friends, I was cleaning air filter box and I removed box then unfortunately I saw oil leak, I guess it is leaking from oil pan but I am not sure, I just wanted to ask you. Any ideas ?

    Thank you.

    It's kind of hard to tell in the pictures where exactly in the car I'm looking. But it looks to me like the oil filter housing gasket leak area. How many miles does your care have OP?

    The gasket is like $6. The job is annoying, though. Rather unpleasant.
