When i was changing my motor mounts on the CE yesterday, I noticed a drop or two of oil on the oil pan.

It seems like on the side of the oil pan...there is a sensor or something that goes in the side...

Is there an o-ring or gasket that holds that thing in?

It's on the drivers side... i guess it's the oil level sensor.

If there is an o-ring... is it hard to remove this?

I would do it the next time I changed the oil

Oil pressure sensor...has a rubber o ring on it. it like to leak bad when it deteriorates. Get a new o ring from the dealer if you cant find it online. the sender is likely just fine. Replace the o ring whenyou change the oil. Easy job, two bolts and it is off, replace o ring and reinstall.

The sensor in the pan is the oil level sender.

Yes, Oil level sender, I got ahead of myself. Oil pressure is at the filter. Sorry.
