Hey guys, I need some help identifying these parts. I cleaned the area and seems like there is some leaking from the areas I circled in red. Do you guys know what they are? Thank you all!

That’s your front main seal, it might be leaking from the oil pump seal and chasing down, I would bet that’s just dripping down on your crank position sensor but that does leak also. When most people do this they replace the oil pump oring, and front main seal. Her is a decent write up on it.

How to Replace Oil Pump seal w/ Pics

I recently noticed that I had an oil leak coming from the front of my motor. After cleaning up the front of the motor to determine where the leak was coming from it was easy to see that it was coming from where the oil pump cover mated to the timing chain cover. I crawled under the truck once...

First picture is the crankshaft position sensor. Second picture I think points to a failing rubber seal/o-ring on the oil pump cover.

There is a allen head replacement that eliminates striping of the OEM JIS Phillip's type screws. Search the forum for some links where to purchase. Otherwise you need to purchase a JIS screw driver. JIS = Japan industrial standard.
