1st oil leak ever. 176k. A couple drips right under the engine. Starting to get lower as the oil change has progressed and yes not from the drain plug.
Obviously not sure what it could be so looking to the experts advice.

Thanks in advance.

Check the the valve covers and front main crank seal.

Ditto on the valve covers. The passenger side on mine started leaking before the driver's side did, but I eventually replaced them both.

Appears to be coming from one of the lines from water pump.
How do you get the connectors to "pop" back together?
