Hi All,
I have attached a pic of where the oil is leaking.
It looked like there was an issue there at sometime in the past.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
Thanks for looking.

the oil filter adapter has a seal, i believe square cross section. Is this a two bolt adapter?
 
Thanks for the replies. Originally I thought (hoping) it was coming from the remote oil filter plate but the leak is on the left side of the pic. It's the oil pan that is leaking and looks like there was some sort of sealant applied to the outside of the pan.
Any thoughts on that?
Thanks,
 
Is this a 454? At an incline? If so, there is likely a multipiece pan seal and there are discontinuities below the timing cover that may be trouble.
 
Very late to the party, but I have the 2 bolt version from a 454 , ill take the adapter to a store and see what fits.. better off finding 1/8 and making my own.

I did find a square upper oring for a Volvo penta that seemed to fit . I just angle cut it, super glued it and snipped off the eye, but it has about 15thou more height than the groove, not sure if that's enough.. orm part is 1/8 so will compare..
