RE: easy fix on oil leak

I would guess front engine seals.
Are they round?

for what he is going to charge you to repair, I would have put up with some oil drops on the driveway.

i have a similar oil leak problem but it seems for me that the oil its leaking from the oil pan. I replaced my oil filter and changed the oil and **** the other day and the bottom part of the oil pan seemed to be oily and it seems like it was replaced b4 cause instead of using the proper gasket it seems like they used like sylicone. i dont exactly know how im gunna go about replaceing that or even if that is really the prob. any ideas?

the silicone is fine, its what they use instead of gaskets for the oil pan.

Did you buy a new washer/drain plug when you changed your oil? They could be leaking....
