S600 Oil Level Sensor

My oil level sensor is leaking, took ages to find leak but i'm pleased to have found it, mirror really helped.
Oil pan has to be removed to get to it, horrible job i guess.

If the leak is slow enough you can just put something under the car in you garage to catch the oil I guess. And keep feeding it oil, of course. Or you can try an engine sealant. I have had great luck with those on slow leaks. Didn't work as well once when I put a long gash in the oil pan in the mountains.

small leak but oil gets blown everywhere, will get oil level sensor replaced or at least the sensor "O" ring, got WIS and job doesn't look to difficult even the Loctite gasket cleaning spray is readily available only thing that bothers is if there's a torque sequence for oil pan bolts and will I need new bolts, probably get it done by dealer.
