Hey guys. I picked up my first Range Rover. It is in beautiful shape. But has some things to work out.

One of them being an oil leak/drip. I can't pinpoint it. It looks to be dripping from where the starter motor mounts and running down the bell housing externally. It is 100 percent not coming from above the starter. I also opened the bell housing plug on the bottom and did not find much oil in the bell housing.

Just wondering if this is a common place for an oil leak and if there is a fix for it without removing the transmission.

It is a small leak that I probably wouldn't worry about. But if I can fix it I would like to. I wouldn't want it to get worse.

Thanks in advance!

update- it took just the right amount of searching and me posting this thread and answering my own question to find the probable cause of my problem. It is likely just the oil galley plug.
