I pulled my engine out today to change the oil pan seal which has been leaking oil in the back near the transmission. ive taken pictures of a couple areas, hoping you guys could do two things, reassure me (Im paranoid) and make sure its the oil pan seal leaking and not my rear iron.
here are the photos:

Its been leaking oil from here

Dripping off the seal that attaches to the bottom plate

Pulled the starter out to look inside


It looks relatively clean, and i think the flywheel would be covered in oil but i just wanted to be sure. everytime i started the car it would leak a puddle about an inch in diameter.

It looks like the rear main seal is leaking. That is not a huge ordeal though. You already have the motor out of the car.
