Greetings everyone name's Luis!

I recently began having an oil leak, i looked up some videos that might point in the way of an oil filter adapter gasket. However i am not too sure if it's coming from there. Kinda don't wanna buy the UV Dye so i decided to wash the are with break cleaner i couldn't tell exsactly but i took a few videos of it. So if ya'll could help me out here, i would greatly appreciate it! I will post the links to the youtube videos!

Are you the original owner ? Has this motor had a serious overheat event in the past ? You need to seriously degrease and pressure wash the underside, and buy the dye and a good UV flashlight. You have such a mess under there, it could be multiple leaks. You're just fishing until you do that.

Thank you Ham!
I guess that is the only way to really pin point the problem in the end. I will buy this today and hopefully give you more info at this time tomorrow!

Do people pressure wash engines? I thought that was risky with all the electronics in there?
How about spraying a lower area with GUNK and a low pressure garden hose to rinse? That and some rags. Is there any oil on the ground?

They can but i live in California where it's extremely illegal hence i have nowhere to wash the oil to. So i will go with just cleaning it with a brush and water after a good spray down with break cleaner. There is spots on the ground of oil.
