I just had the same leak, it ended up being the oil pump. I put on a melling lpop and a fluidamper harmonic balancer. Just dont forget to put some sealant on the keyway for the HB. I found out the hard way lol

LPOP was my first thought as well. Mine leaks a little and I have a new one for when I get the time to dig in to her.
