new oil drip from the front
I noticed some new oil spots on the drive today. Is this an engine oil cooler or transmission fluid cooler?
Do they typically start to leak?
Can the pipes enetring the top be tightened?
Can they be repaired?
I lifted the car a week ago using the front cross member, could this have disturbed it?

It's funny...and truly no disrespect here...I'm learning things about my beloved coupe every day.
But when I've seen your forum name in other posts...RaceDiagnostics...I thought to myself "oh good, we've got another pro here...we can always use new pros on the forum."
But then you've got basic questions, just like everyone else! Oh well. Glad you're in the group and we'll all help in any way we can.

Kick a man when he is down ehh.
I was snowboarding all day today so didn't get under the car yet but will get a better look tomorrow.
Whats with the lobe on the connection to the pipe, does it have any purpose, and is there a nut on top of that lobe.
Cairngorm in Scotland today.

Looks like a great day.
The parts diagram makes the layout a bit clearer:

Could be a pipe gone but may just be an O ring. you're going to have to clean it off to see exactly where it's leaking.
