Hi,
My car is leaking a lot oil. I notice a small puddle and it started to smoke. I found that the leak is comming from the shaft that come out of my oil pan. I am guessing that I have to replace the seal but do you think others things should be replace as they take appart those parts? Or what could brake as they take it appart?

yes the seal should be replaced but until you get it apart you really can't say anything for sure.
