I'm all over the technical forum today! Just got back from the garage after dropping the car off to have the brake fluid changed, when I got back I noticed there is a patch of oil where I briefly stopped the car idling to have a chat with my dad, and then a few spots where the car idled in the garage before that. I changed the oil and filter last week, I'm pretty sure I did the drain plug up nice and tight, and I only put the filter on hand tight (still pretty tight though, but I'm not exactly Jeff Capes!).
So, will check it out when I get the car back (hopefully tonight or early tommorow), if its neither of those two things, what am I looking at - sump gasket, or the rear crank seal maybe. Fingers crossed it will go away, whatever it is!
Drops of oil on the ground...

Should add that it is a patch of oil, but its hit some water so its spread out quite a lot like a mini oil slick - it may have only been a few drops, but its definitely a patch now...
Should also add that its an 325 M20, 176k on the clock.
