weird place to leak? or something else
Hi all,
I have noticed weird leak along the side of the gearbox another day.
I have tried to trace where it is coming from but it it super tight in that area around fixed vane turbo actuator.
I suspect the pipe as per picture closest to bottom arrow might be leaking some oil but I might be wrong.
Any pointers to what part number that could be as I would like to atempt to replace it without removing too much around it. Also if some have experience any clips on it as pretty one hand operation is considered here with suer small space for tools.

I put my last D3 into an authorised ZF workshop to have the auto gearbox serviced, as part of this I remember the workshop manager telling me it was best to replace a plug in the box as they are prone to leaking from there.
I have just checked the old receipt and found its description as Electronic transmission plug but no part number with it.
Don't know if this helps or not
