It's a pretty heavy leak. From what I can tell it's coming from where the engine and transmission meet. Pic attached. Thinking it is the rear main seal. Can anyone either help me confirm or give me suggestions. Thanks for y'all's time.

 

Probably the distributor o-ring just above that area.

 

D17's don't have distributors.

 

Oh right, probably the plug where the distributor would be.

 

I checked the plug, but it was dry when i ran the engine. When i ran the engine oil dripped down not from the oil pan gasket but from somewhere else on top but couldn't see where. It dripped down to the top of where the pan would be then to the pan not from gasket though. So I thought maybe oil filter was loose but looks like its not dripping either. . Thanks for your answers btw.

 

Torque converter seal or rear main, those would be my guesses. If it’s not the cam plug then it’s gotta be something inside the bellhousing.

 

Thanks i was planning on opening it but didn't even know to check torque converter seal.

 

No mention of trim level. Vtec? Could be leaking from the vtec solenoid and running down the top of the bell housing.

 

this is assuming you have an automatic.
