Oil Leak
My wifes 89 has an oil leak on the right side of motor near rear, I cleaned it and then drove it to see where it might be leaking. It is dripping on the top of the starter, does not apear to be the valve cover(new gasket 6 mos ago) cant find any oil around the temp sender or dip stick. but there is oil on a bracket under the sender. What hve I missed or cannot see?

To find the last oil leak at the rear china wall I pulled the dist, cleaned the are behind & below the china wall with brake parts cleaner and used a xenon light (damn bright) and mirror to locate the leaking area along the wall.
