Continuing to track down the source of my oil leaks.

I removed this thing that connects to the engine and the transmission so I could peek up towards the rear main seal and flywheel thing.




The plate thingy had oil/grease on the inside of it. The photo is after cleaning it up a bit.












Flywheel thingy with teeth was clean. Looking up towards the rear main seal and carrier it looks kinda oily. But I was thinking there would be oil all over everything. So I'm not sure what to make of it.






There was oil still dripping off of the oil filter too. Up above looks pretty clean. If anything is leaking above, then it must be coming from the head gasket seam I guess.

Driver side of the engine is dry.

Underneath the front of the engine at the crank is dry of oil.

Don't see oil on the water pump area.

Need to track down some UV dye I guess as the next step.

I've got the car running in the driveway and I'll crawl back under it in a while to see if I can find any new fresh traces of oil.
