W123 m115 200 petrol - oil leak from distributor

crwdns2934249:0crwdne2934249:0:

Hi hope all is well
I have an oil leak when driving from the base of the distributor I changed the o ring last year but have been told the shaft doesn’t actually need an o ring
Any ideas of clarification

Update : looks like it’s leaking from the distributor shaft housing
Looks like there is an o ring there, didn’t know housing had an o ring? also I tried to undo the bolt but couldn’t crack it open is it ok to give it a strongman torque on it?
