Look in the top section in the center section.
This is for a turbo, but it's obvious which you can apply for an NA.

i have a drip that comes from somewhere near my oil filter that i have not investigated or fixed yet. havent had the time, just been checking the oil and makin sure its not low. doesnt seem to lose any more oil than the amount it burns.

I recently replaced both oil cooler lines with braided hoses. Don't wait too long to fix...my leak started to soak my brake pads and rotor. I also replaced the oil filter tube O rings and now have noticed my oil pan gasket is leaking. So in summary, the previous replies nailed the most common areas for you to check..good luck.
