Hello everyone, we replaced oil pan gasket this summer. A little over 2,000 miles I saw oil leak on the floor. I open the bottom panel today and found that the oil leak is coming from the part that connect to the passenger Axel CV boot. Not sure what it is call or how to fix it. The oil pan gasket on top of look are try and clean.

See photo below.

That is the oil pan. The front axle runs through it. You can pull the axle out. There is a round seal that is serviceable
