Oil leak what sensor is this?

[/IMG][IMG]file:///C:/Users/darrin/AppData/Local/Temp/moz-screenshot.png[/IMG]

Oil leaks out of this sensor or wire that lead to a sensor on the front left side of the motor. My question is what are these wires to and how to fix the leak.

looks like the wires go from the stator to the regulater... if so, its the rubber seal leaking....clean good and apply black rtv sealer

Or if youre a fan of doing things the right way replace the stator....the leak is coming from the inside and its not that bad of a job.

The crank sensor is on top portion of the picture, where you have the leak is the stator plug. I would clean it up and seal it with rtv sealant. I would not trash a good stator because the plug was leaking.
