Slight oil leak, popped to the local VW/Audi for advice and think it's coming from the rocker cover gasket and suggest upgrading to a rubber one.
All changed cleaned hopefully that solves it.

Been a while bu with the MOT due and some minor MOT items to resolved thought I would sort the minor oil leak.
New Sump and rubber gasket and oil and filter change.
Booked in the following at my local VW Audi garage on the 5th August. The exhaust I think will just be a new clamp and exhaust sealant as blowing slightly.
Top steering column bearing - need spline adaptor
Steering inner joints/arms + track rod ends
Brake pipes
