Oil Leak from Oil Filter housing


#1

My car just started leaking oil from here:

How do I fix it?

it is leaking alot 1 drop every min.

this is not a pic from my car, My housing is stock.

They sell a kit for that. It’s a few oring and the plug you have circled. Drain the oil, remove the center bolt, pull off housing, replace o-rings, put back together. Should take about half an hour.

I actually also have a leak from my oil filter housing. I thought it was the infamous pressure relief valve o ring, but I replaced it and it still leaks. I believe there is also a large o ring that seats the housing to the block. I have it, but I haven’t tried swapping that out yet. By the way if you just want to try the pressure relief valve then you can actually do it on the car, but it is a little bit of a pain in the ass.

Thanks Guys, I found the kit. I order new seals for everything.
