oile from left side of engine

Hi, Can any tell me what this shaft is in the attached picture I have circled.
Cleaned it all up to find where I had a oil leak from 24 hours later tracked it down to this area circled in the picture. I'm yet to receive my workshop manual so have little idea what it is?
A newbie to this so all.
