No problem. Now get it changed, get it filled and drive it like you stole it!

I concur with the mob.
I would undo the oil filter housing cap and check that the o-ring is properly seated. If the ring is damaged, just go buy a filter from the local auto parts store and use the new o-ring provided with it. That should work until you can get around to changing the oil out. Also, I would only use an OE filter when you actually change the oil. Don't forget to top off the oil as awell as it looks like a significant amount may have already leaked out. Edit: Damn you guys were fast. Beat me to it with a few posts in a matter of minutes.

I had no idea the 4.6is had the OFH in that location. The 4.8is has the filter underneath...

Romeokc10...too bad you are in California. I have only seen one other 4.6 in Memphis in the Blue...sorry I don't know the technical color.
Since everyone gave me such a hard time on not knowing that this was a filter, you will be happy to know I got it changed out and the ring replaced. Since I was under the hood I went ahead and detailed it out. Now to get the bags ordered from Arnott. Thanks, Shawn
