An oil path structure includes: a motor case having a joint surface and having a cooling oil path opened to the joint surface formed therein; a generator case having a cooling oil path formed therein and joined to the joint surface such that the cooling oil paths communicate with each other; an O-ring sealing between the cooling oil paths; and a plain washer limiting the flow rate of oil passing through the oil path. In the generator case, a recessed portion is formed at a position adjacent to the joint surface and on route of the cooling oil path. In the recessed portion, the O-ring in contact with the joint surface and the plain washer positioned on the side of O-ring opposite to the joint surface are arranged. The plain washer is sandwiched between the O-ring and a bottom surface. Thus, an oil path structure can be provided that ensures reliable sealing and allows flow rate adjustment with a simple structure.
