Agree with Phil. Most of the time what is thought to be a front seal leak turns out to be loose oil pan bolts. Definitely check those first. Happened to me once. I thought it was the front seal but Marc just tightened the pan bolts near the front and solved the problem. Might have to raise the engine a bit for them too, but a much easier fix if that is it. --Bob
