Hello, there is a fairly significant oil leak on the front of my engine, just under the oil filter. It will pool on the “shelf” on the front of the engine. The filter is good and sealed okay, and the hoses don’t seem to be leaking, but I can’t seem to locate the source. Is there anything else around there that would be leaking?

So, the oil is coming from the oil cooler O ring. Here is how to remove it so you can replace it. Check out the images (below). Let us know if you need anything else.

Great, thank you! I think I found the O-ring kit for it. Would you happen to know what size socket is needed for the relief valve?

They don't say, it looks large though like a 22mm deep well, but you will need to see when you get there.
