Should be an easy fix if I'm seeing it right. Back it out, check/replace the gasket on the head end. Apply some thread sealant (not Locktite) and reinstall. There are different kinds of sealant and a quick google search should find you the appropriate one quick enough.

Are you able to supply a more zoomed out picture? It appears to be migrating from something above. Possibly an oil pan gasket or as simple as a leak at the oil filter. A more complete picture may help.

Thanks for those HD pictures, I too think it may be from something above. In the 1st pic you posted, you can see the plastic clip for the cooler lines and they are oily. I'm wondering if oil is weeping down from above somewhere.

Easiest way to clean something like that is to spray it with some brake cleaner, that's what I did when I worked as a tech

I would wrap the threads near the top with plumbing Teflon tape and screw it back in. Teflon tape is good for up to 500 degrees Fahrenheit with very slow degradation up to 750 degrees.

I think that bolt just holds the bell housing to the motor. I was looking at the earlier pics and combined with what you sent I think that's all it is. I would take that bolt out and if you have a mirror look inside. If there is nothing but a tunnel then the oil is most likely coming from between the parts (engine and transmission) which would mean it could be a rear main seal. The one thing that looks weird is that vertical bolt on the bottom. It had fluid around it. That could be an oil pan to block bolt and it could be the main leak. The oil could be leaking on the inside between the engine and trans and hitting that horizontal bolt. Please let us know what you find out.

Ok I took out the 2 screw holding the color line than l check how much deep the hole by putting wire in and it's long more than 2". Too much
