Leaked a little (probably residual) the next day, and then stopped and has not returned. It never leaked often enough to change the level (we have a LOT of oil in there) but still concerning of course. Seems to have been a poorly tightened crush washer in my case.
Yea this seems to be what mine is/was. Couple spots of oil and now nothing, so either a little to do with a sloppy oil change and/or what you're describing with the crush washer. Either way oil level hasnt dropped and its not longer leaking, happy days !
