Ford 7810 oil leak

[7810SQ]

Hi new to the forum, any help greatly appreciated, I have a 1990 series 3 7810 that has a good oil leak around the adapter plate for the engine oil filter, is this plate bolted from inside the block or is it held in by the bug nut in the centre that the oil filter screws onto I know there is a large round flat rubber seal between the block and plate, how do I disassemble this

Loosen the nut.

Like he says

New seal or just some silicone gasket sealer just does the job.
