4.4 tdV8 oil drip.

I noticed a small spot of dirty oil on my garage floor under the near side front, about three inches further back than the back of the front wheel, but I can’t spot where it is coming from.
Any ideas ??

Look at the bottom of the bellows for the intake on the secondary turbo (there's a black plastic pipe run from the left hand airbox all the way down the engine bay and it then joins a plastic fitting via some bellows).

Also look around the sump and sump quick release fitting. And also on the bell housing.

Also feel the top of the sub frame bars to see which parts are dry and which have oil running on. 2015 Range Rover Autobiography 4.4 SDV8

I once changed the oil filter and used the old o ring, (it looked great--honest Rolling with laughter ) of course it leaked a little Whistle
I learnt my lesson and of course I used the correct torque and lube o ring with a little new Engine oil.

As a matter of interest, the first filter I changed last year. I noticed there was a white tipex mark on the filter housing. So it looks like the dealer or the Indy dont use a Torque wrench!! So the white mark removed and will try to narrow this down when the 5Y is done early next year Rolling with laughter 2018 SE SDV8 4.4 Byron Blue

Thanks gents, I will be getting my ramps out next week to investigate further.
I had the NS airbox out to change the filter in May ready for June MOT and it was all dry and clean then.
I have never disturbed the oil drain connector down there, always sucking from top ?
I will report back here when I resolve.
