Thank you for speedy reply...if you noticed in the photo the engine and transmission are very clean and Easley is the leak. It’s coming fro the seal on the oil pan side next to the front diff. and increase when the engine normal temp and not even moving. I stayed under the car when was tuning with two spotlights and handheld over that I used reflecting merrier to look on top but was clean.
I am sure of the location but not sure if this is an issues with the oil pan or I need special seals or if anyone got an idea to save me the work all over again. God bless
