Does it have a seal/gasket/o'ring  Or do you just use a blob of sealant 

[AndyStobbs]

O ring.

[omega3000]

O ring.

I am to inspect it at some point , i think it mite have been weeping for some time ... just wanted to get the parts there ready if it is 

[dbug]

New o-ring comes fitted to new sensor

New o-ring comes fitted to new sensor

Crank sensor is working ok mate , just suspect its leaking so o ring could be knackered  Not had a chance to look yet but drip drip on the drive is from that area . Either that or the oil filter not sealing 

I have an o ring set so will see if i got one to fit , guess the o ring doesn't have to be genuine

Does have to be nitrile, or equivalent, as oil not good with a "standard" o-ring

[biggriffin]

You know what to do

[AndyStobbs]

Nitrile, viton, mbr anything will do it. Even genuine don't last for ever. As you've discovered, they harden up.

I've just done a job on A corsa b with a fuel leak,the injector o ring where it fits into the rail had gone all icky and was passing fuel.
