I got a summilux on the cheap, it's kind of loose has a few specs of dust in it but I keep getting some strange flaring. Anyone have any ideas?

... likes film again.
It is always at the same spot under various light conditions so I would assume a light leak somewhere ...

Looks like a light leak, not a flare from the lens.
Open the back of your camera and take the lens off and shine a flashlight though.
You'll see a small pin sized hole of light on the upper portion of the shutter curtain.

It's only with this lens. Could it be the mount?
