Default Oil leak 06 is350

Hello guys. This morning while changing my oil, I took off the cover to change the filter and noticed it was a bit oily in there. I took the following picture and was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction to find the source of the leak. It isn't too bad and I will definitely wait until it gets nicer out but I'm hoping to get a head start in doing my homework as to the work that needs to be done. Thanks in advance everyone.



This is where I can see a small drop of oil





This is to give everyone an idea of the angle I'm looking from

Clean the oily areas with brake clean, and run the motor. Closely monitor that area where the leak is developing, and you should be able to spot where it's coming from.
