Could anyone help me with determining where this oil is coming from.

It appears a couple days after wiping away. Doesn't seem to be coming from the casing half or any higher up than where the oil gathers. The only area I can see is from those hole type things, but I'm unsure what they are.

It's a metal, interference fit, bung, I have seen a few of these starting to leak now. You would need to drop the oil first before trying to remove it, personally I would wait until the next oil change and then drill a small pilot hole and use a slide hammer to remove it, clean the bore up before refitting a new one.

Oh darn it. Just carried out an oil change a few weeks ago.

Thanks for your reply! Any idea on product name? I cant find anything online.

Thinking it could be "99903602601"
