Here are the pics before I cleaned it up. If any of you have any thoughts about what you see, let me know.
And here it is after some clean-up.

Looks like the leak is from the IMSB flange, so good catch. Did you check the cam deviation before you took it apart? Was there any metal in the oil filter or the sump plate?
Keep the updates coming.
