Reason: added photo
Looks like the vacuum pump for the brake servo. It looks like oil leaking not coolant. you could try tightening the 2 bolts ,or replace the gasket.
Thank you so much !! I had no idea the name of this part or how to repair I did tighten the 2 bolts but when the motor is hot and running.. i see a tiny bit of bubbling and the occasional drip coming from it.
I googled the part. i just need a new seal ... my only question is when i start to take it apart, will break fluid and Oil/ Or coolant both start pouring out?
should be easy to change a seal ? knock on wood ?
let me know what you think ?

I have not had to do this job myself but you can search this forum and the X351 Forum with the Search Term " vacuum pump oil leak" and see experience of people who have done the job. General advice is to remove some oil from the the engine before removing the pump so none leaks out on the floor.
Thanks. I was able to find a easy .version 2 rebuild kit with the o rings and rubber rings. 34 dollars on RKX I will be doing the job this weekend thanks for helping me.
