Oil Leak. Help.
 
I seem to be leaking a small amount of oil from underneath the oil filter. It's right underneath where the filter attachs. Does anyone know whats there??? Can it be a gasket?? Or something else?? ? And how easy is it to change or fix or get at ????/ PLease Help.

Your oil filter pedestal is leaking. It's rather common. There are just two rubber "o" rings under it that get packed out and hard. If you have small hands the job probaly won't be too tough, if your hands are fat like mine your in for a bitch of a job. Somebody on this forum has a great write up on the problem and the procedure, you should do a search.
