We call that the rear cam plug.

sells for about $10

dont fret too much about prying it off the surface, the sealing happens deeper inside.

ive already changed that, I believe thats a black plastic piece with an oring that pops inside.. (all of that stuff is above where I took the photo);
The metal cylinder shape piece that I'm talking about is like part of the engine, maybe? I'll try to get a better shot of it.. Maybe it cant be replaced..

Ohh now I think your just talking about one of the transmission/ starter mounting bolts then, those are not likely your source of leak.

A better picture would help, maybe valve cover gasket and its migrating over near the water passage?

Pic is too close, macro

Can't see the forest for the trees.
Back out a little bit so we can tell where you are on the engine.
