Hello RX 8 series 2 oil leak issue

Hello all,

I just joined the forum. I recently got the vehicle, and it has a few issues I am trying to sort out.

The vehicle is a JDM Series 2, 2008, 6-port (I think) automatic

I am currently trying to resolve an oil leak near the oil filter housing. There was oil all over the sump pan/tray. Recently, I removed the oil pan, cleaned it, and resealed it. After refilling the engine oil, I noticed that oil oozes from the area shown below while the engine is idling, and the leak increases with RPM.

Please let me know if you have any ideas on how to resolve this issue.

Thanks.
