Mysterious Oil Leak

As it says I have a queer oil leak. Its coming from the bracket that reinforces the oil pan. Its not terrible but its pretty consistent. Anyone have this problem or can anyone give me a diagnoses. Thanks.

Sorry no ****, just got a new laptop for college, 1520 inspiron. I dont wanna ruin it with ****.

Re: Mysterious Oil Leak

Its not the oil pan or the gasket. Its my ------- cheap *** sandwich adapter for my oil filter. Its most likely deffective. I got it from a shitty ricer site. Whats a credible site to purchase a sandwich adapter from. Also clutch feels fine!
