What is leaking? Only noticed it because of the back of the Jeep has oil splatters. Everything running fine. Any ideas?

Has someone recently changed your oil/filter, or added oil?

I do my own oil but it was 3k ago. I just checked the filter cap and it’s got some bleed around it. Oil is also low. Maybe the o ring failed?

Was it torqued to specs?

Possibly not. Never use a torque wrench on that. It’s 20 pounds?

Not sure. I don't know what engine you have.

3.6. It’s on the cap 25ftlbs. How could it need more than a quart?! Dip stick still dry.

Shine a flashlight under the intake to inspect the engine valley.
