Hello there I have a Range Rover sport 2013 v6 I have engine oil leaking at the front a massive amount upon starting I have had the oil cooler changed genuine form Land Rover about a month ago everything looks dry around the oil cooler it looks to be coming from above were the gearbox cooler is would a crankshaft oil seal leak as much? You would think that a pipe has came of something there’s that much oil I can’t get under it to see as it’s parked over a kerb. Just has anyone else seen this incase it’s something simple before getting it recovered. Thanks
 
Most likely the crankshaft oil seal, it'd also be worth getting the oil separator checked as that can cause negative crankcase pressure, which puts suction on the front crank oil seal. Basically, get a new seal fitted then check for positive crankcase pressure at the oil filler cap, if OK, then nothing else needs to be done.
I'd suggest you take the opportunity to replace the oil pump whilst you're at it, very little additional labour - oh, make sure an oil & filter change is done after the repairs.
