Have you checked to make sure you have both crush washers in place? If anything it couldn't hurt to take it apart and replace them.

The crush washers probably just need to be replaced..I get mine for .50 cents a peice at my local mechanic..

I bet you would stop the leak if you put an acutal oil feed line there with newly correct sized copper washers.

In fact, upon the second look..It doesn't even look like there is a crush washer there..I can clearly see one on the coolant line in front, but I see no copper on the oil feed line..

12mm copper crush washers...you need two of them.

Don't use any of the 1/2" I.D. auto parts store substitutes...they won't seal right.

.50 cents a peice..Exactly..Order like 10 of them..So you have extras on hand.
