Oil Pan Leak - Not Where you Think!
Hey Guys - Have a minor leak coming from the side of the oil pan opposite of the drain plug. It's the plate that has three bolts on it with what I'm guessing has a gasket around it. Attached a pic of what I'm talking about, does anyone know what this is?

Yea, there's an oring under it that has failed apparently. It may not even work, no fd I messed with every had it working. Remove it, put the key to on and play with the sensor and see if you can get the oil light to come on.
remove it, replace the oring if you want or just seal it with rtv..... that's what I did.
