From the position of the puddle on the floor, it's coming from the right front (passenger side) of the motor. Too far forward to be the oil pan, besides couple of months ago I tightened all the oil pan bolts. I'm guessing either the oil pressure sending unit or the oil cooler lines.
Won't know until I get her up on the jack stands.
Bummer.
The good news is that even though she's got a leak, she can still fry the hides with the best of 'em.
There's a little less rubber on the tires and a nice pair of extra wide black marks on my favorite street.

Tom,

I had an oil leak and it was just from a mechanic NOT tightening the bolts on the Cam Cover...

I doubt it is that easy for you, but thought I would put it out there.

Cheers
