How are we all guys?

I've got a very slow oil leak coming from the 2 sensors behind the ecu at the front of the block, my question is what are these? Cam position sensors? I've done quick searches but no straight answer

I just wanna be sure i'm buying the right seals before I do, or if anyone has had the same drama could they link me the right part?

Cheers guys

if its leaking from that sensor, , just degrease the area ,then undo retaining bolt , pull out sensor a little bit, and put a little bit of sillocon around it, put back in , with the bolt nipped up should be all good I just done mine yesterday there is no seal there, don't tighten bolts to tight

I also have a small leak from the front of the engine from behind one of the pulleys. It looks like some sort of sensor that's leaking around it

Cheers for the replies guys, i'm away at work at the moment so I wont be able to get a pic up for about 6 days till i get home

I don't think it's the timing cover seal but I could be wrong, i'm 99 percent sure it's coming from those 2 sensors
