Anyone ever seen an oil leak from this particular area. Looks to be the bolt in the picture. Mileage 3332 miles

What I would do is add some infrared oil dye and black light the are and you will see the exact leak. I have seen the cylinder base gasket leak like that. But the dye takes out all the guess work.

Gonna drop it off at Harley on Wednesday. I paid quite a bit for this damned extended warranty. Time to put it to work
