Oil Leak Help

Post by quain »

Hi all,

My FTO seems to be leaking oil, the car is barely been driven these days and I've notices a couple of oil droplets on the ground.

The source seems to be coming from the right side of the engine block, just want to ask if any of you guys can shed some light on what the problem is before I take it to a mechanic.

I have included a few pictures below... Cheers.
