    Greetings,
    Just noticed an oil leak on my 98 T&C w/3.8 Litre engine. The leak seems to
    be originating from between the block and the oil filter (it's not the oil
    filter). I know the oil filter sits on some sort of pedastal and this
    connects to the block. It is this pedastal or adapter that attaches to the
    block that is leaking. Is there a seal or a gasket in there or just
    something that needs to be tightened up?
    Thanks to all replies.

    Could be from almost anywhere (valve cover [most likely], front seal, oil
    pan gasket, etc.) Have the engine cleaned, put dye in it than troubleshoot.
