well i've had the cover off and i cant decide if its the sump or not,

how big of a job is it resealing the sump? just going to give that a go and some oil additive to revitalise seals and see if that fixes it,

Its tights coming off but a bit of elbow grease you should get it off just remember to drain the oil first and use a good oil resistant sealent i always use vw/audi sump sealent then refit all the bolts then tighten them all up

It tight coming past the front round crossmember and you may need to jack it up and surport on the chassis so the axle sits lower to make working on it a little easyer
