engine oil leak

Hi
Have recently noticed small oil leak coming from valley at top of engine. Are there any common problems in this area ? Impossible to see anything thru all pipework/electrics etc

the oil filter is on top of engine, you will see the black "can" housing with a hexagon head on it.. If you mean in that area it could be the filter housing seal is leaking a little bit?? Other than that I do not know.....

Not a common problem, do you have a photo ??

there has been problems with the seal on the vac pump assembly leaking though. There is now a new design pump that can replace the old one (nothing wrong with the pump but you cant buy the seals seperatly Rolling Eyes ) Duncan
