Default leak ID

I need help identifying a small oil leak. I snapped a couple of pics of the area.

Any help would be appreciated.





thanks

looks like the head gasket, maybe the TCT service plug. re-torque the head gasket bolts or tighten the TCT service plug. Just my uneducated guess, if i have a leak i re-tighten stuff, to the specified torque. Hopefully it's not the head gasket.

The plug and the area around those two socket head cap screws are prone to leak. You can remove the plug and clean it, and the bolts can be snugged a -tiny- bit. Barely a 1/8 turn is enough, if they can turn at all.
