oil is on the oil pan bolts on right side only. also on oil filter. drips onto the cross over pipe.not leaking from valve cover or head. oil return and feed are dry also. took down the inspection cover to see if the main was leaking. light residue on back of the motor but not like ive seen with mains in the past any input would help thanks
 
Clean off all the oil on the bottom of the car. Put the car on level ground start it up an watch for drips. Most likely coming from oil filter or oil pump housing an driving down the road is blowing it backwards onto oil pan. That's where I would start.
 
Mine leaks from the PCV grommet and then puddles on the back of the intake manifold, eventually finding it's way down to the starter and crossover pipe.
