Oil leak

[Slewis]

Hey guys ran into an issue of having a bit of an oil leak on my k11.
So I borrowed some ramps off a family member and found this leak (picture isn't great but this is where it's coming from leaving patches of oil so big on my drive the U.S. have invaded it.

I have no idea where to start to fix this, in Nottingham if anyone is bored and fancies helping a novice

Cheers guys

Not sure if the image worked so here it is again

Looks like the crank seal?
I can get you a price on one of you want mate?

Is it a half moon seal?
I've asked someone to give me a hand tomorrow and they said they'd pick one up for me.
Thanks though Kieran!

looks to be coming from further above ie. front crank seal.
I'd try replace the crank seal first cos it's much easier than the sump. (crank pulley off, lever old seal off, punch new seal on, fit pulley)
wipe whole area clean with brake cleaner, test drive and spot for any more leak

Thanks pollyp!
Just went for it in the end and got two half moon seals ordered from a local parts store, £6 for the two and then had some gasket sealant lying around.
Seems to be ok for now
Back to hunting for student budget alloys!
Thanks for the help guys.
