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.
