G13BB cam sensor housing(?) oil leak was created by originalusername
I'll be upfront about this: I don't have a Jimny.
I've got a 2001 Swift, but it has the G13BB engine (used in 98-03 Jimny, according to wikipedia), and I've seen the most support for that engine in these forums, so I thought I'd give it an ask.
I'm not sure how much the pictures will help, but there is a small oil leak towards the top of the engine, and I think it's the camshaft sensor housing (from what research I've done online). I haven't taken anything apart to look yet, but it seems that the most common cause is the o-ring.
Thought I'd check for advice before potentially wasting time trying to fix something that isn't the cause

That's where mine was leaking. It's not a big job.
