Take it to Tony in Sedlescombe or Vince @ RDS on Brunel Drive. Problem solved and all questions answered. These guys know Subarus very well.

Welcome to the forum.

Agreed sounds like crank shaft seal if it’s leaking from the front .
Vince at Rds knows Subaru’s like no others locally and won’t rip your arm off either..
