Ok its nothing major, but everytime i move the car i notice a few drips on the garage floor. I checked under the car and i noticed that a bolt that goes into my oil pan/timing chain cover wasnt tight. So I went to tighten it and it just spins freely in there. Is this my oil leak source? The bolt just wont tighten, but it wont drop out either.
Any advice or pointers? But i guessing thats my slow leak there?

I think you found it HD.
Crank Seal needs replaced most likely.
Mine leaked too after my install so we threw in another one.
But, your going to need a new crank bolt.
