First be more descriptive, is it NA or Turbo. Next take a picture of where the leak appears to be, and finally shut the car down, clean the area up, then star it again with more oil to keep her lubed, then look carefully for th e oil.

If its a leak near the fan then its the oil cooler/oil cooler line/omp. Those three items are kinda hard to see without removign teh fan shroud and air box. But if it is one of those items see if you cant get the car for far less and tow it home, and avidly look for the leak. Those are rather easy and cheap to fix if you do it yourself.
