Joe, oil leaks can be a bit of a pain. Check the galley plugs on the manifold side of the block, the valve cover plate. The seal on the back end of the engine can drip if failing. There is no seal at the front.

Oil leaks can often be spotted by looking for a cleaner spot or trail as the oil carries away dirt and dust on its way to where it drips.

How much oil are we talking about? Look around with a mirror or a go-pro for the places you can't see.
