Its hard to tell if its the sensor or the sealant for front cover. This view is looking up from underneath. Any suggestions? [IMG]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210915/5c91c***48d495b1eacb2e3a3d5d2000.jpg[/IMG]

Looking at a leak from the bottom is pointless, wiping it off is pointless. Oil flows down, degrease that engine with engine cleaner until it's clean and dry, then look for the highest point that's moist with oil.
