2011 JK Oil Leak at oil filter connection (3.8L)
Does anybody know what the oil filter is connected to--like what its called? On the 3.8l its located under the airbox on the passenger side, you basically go through the passenger wheel well to unscrew the oil filter. I was changing oil today and that piece (what the oil filter screws on to) is very loose--and seems like maybe its not bolted down to anything and the oil lines or that piece specifically are leaking. I cant find a vido on youtube or in any of my books to define what that is in my Jeep--nor what it should look like or how it connects. Any help is appreciated.

Never mind on all, I was super confused on this but it turns out the person that owned the jeep before me had installed an oil filter relocation kit on the jeep. Problem solved, ordered a new one!
