Oil Leak

Oil Leak
I've found an oil leak on the rear of my 3.0l. I've tracked it down to what my research has shown to be an IMT valve. Is this a simple remove and replace the o-ring or is there more to it? I'm going to try to attach a picture. Please tell me if I'm looking at the right part. This is on the passenger side by the firewall. Thanks in advance for any guidance.

Yes, that's the upper IMT valve, see here for the "short" procedure https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/s...ics-faq-32135/ it will help if you have very long arms and small hands. Jon89 has a good tip in post #3 to get a bit more space, the shroud is also quite easy to remove completely.
The "long" route involves removing the manifold.
