  • Leaking Bolt near oil filter 3.4L

    I got a question. I own a 1995 3.4L V6 Camaro. It hasn't had one oil leak......until now, and I see where it is leaking from. Its leaking from a bolt located near the Oil Filter. If you were to situate yourself under the car where the Oil Filter is, you will see the Oil Filter of course, the Oil Pressure Sensor near the top, and then a fairly large bolt head. Its a six sided bolt with a flat washer base. Thats where my leak is coming from. Can anyone tell me what this bolt is? It obviously has oil pressure near the top of it. Does it just hold the oil filter adapter to the block? Thanks.

    Not sure what it is, but I would try tightening it first. If it's already tight, maybe that washer is some kind of gasket, kind of like the one on the oil pan drain plug. Maybe it's just worn.
