All the oil leaks. Everywhere.

  172 Cup/E46 330i/RX7
Morning all,
I've got a weep from what looks like a black plastic cap at the end if the cam on my 172 cup.
Roughly where the red circle is (not my engine, best photo I could find!)

I'm guessing that the cap is just a plastic cover, and there's a cam seal behind it?
Is it likely that's the culprit, or is it likely to be something else? If that's the case, are they easy enough to change without removing a cam?

In addition, my sump looks like it's weeping - is this a subframe out job, or can it be done relatively easily in situ? Is it gasketed, or is a Loctite 5910 job?
Cheers

sump gasket is a subframe off / really loose job.

the bit you've ringed is a seal and can be replaced without issue.
