Hi all!
I have an oil leak, and I'm having trouble finding the source.
It's coming from behind and above what I believe is the starter, running down the engine-side of the starter and dripping to the ground. Picture is from underneath looking up at starter.

Can I get some guidance on how to find where this is coming from w/out taking my tractor apart?

I think this is the starter
