Big oil problem! Need some quick help
 
1 Attachment(s)
So I went to go to school today and below my car was a huge puddle of oil!
So under further examination we found that the source of the leak is the unit the oil filter goes on. These is a crack along this unit and oil is pouring out when the car is started.
I attached a picture of exactly what im talking about.( its the silver unit with 2 tubes going into it)

Sorry im not to familiar with this so can somebody help me out on what exactly this is and the steps to replacing this. Thanks!

Yep thats your oil cooler/ oil filter stand. Do not start the car again, please do not start the car again. Its an easy fix tho.
