Anyone had something like this before?
I was cleaning the surface to install the new oil filter and i discovered a crack on the top. I did see some oil when i removed the bashplate and one of the hoses seemed a bit greasy and now i know where it came from.
Don't know if i missed it the last time already but i think not, didn't smell burned oil and before draining i checked the level which was just the same as after filling 9444km ago.
It's a pricy part so tomorrow i take a long socket 24mm from work (don't have that size myself) to remove it and TIG weld it.
Just have to figure out what material it is, it is slightly magnetic but some stainless is still magnetic but that's for the day after tomorrow.
