That I thought was the front main seal. It was replaced about 25k ago on my 2000 SE. I assumed that the FMS was leaking because that little one way breather valve on top had been plugged for a while and oil began seeping just after this was replaced.
It wasn't the FMS. It was the hose coming off the PCV 6 tank. It was putting oil in the FMS area. I just replaced the whole PCV 6 system as it was put on when I got the car 8 years ago. That tank was a bit deformed as well. The way I found it was I steamed cleaned the engine and then checked for the leak after that. It was pretty easy to find after everything was clean.
But yeah, like others have said the FMS is pretty easy to do yourself.
