Oil leak fixed - loose oil pan bolts
Had a oil leak. Wasn't sure if it was the filter, drain plug, oil pan or something else. I checked the torque on everything and noticed oil pan bolts were pretty much only finger tight. Torqued them to 7 ft lbs and now oil leak is gone. Never checked them since I got the car but glad I did. Also when I was under the car noticed a nut and bolt was missing from the bracket that goes between the transmission and the exhaust so replaced that too.
