How is anyone supposed to help you with the info you are giving? What side of the engine? front or rear? How much of a leak is it? A couple drips or a huge puddle?

Take it to a good mechanic. I'm not getting the impression that you're going to fix it yourself.

It could be leaking from anywhere - oil lines to cooler, metering pump, filter location, engine itself, oil filler, etc,etc,etc.

Can you give us some more info?

what's the color of the fluid? green, brown, pink? it can be a number of things. You can try rubbing the fluid between your fingers and see the viscosity and slight color tint.

also helps if u put a cardboard under ur car and let it sit just long enough for u to see approximately where it is leaking from.

before you find where its leaking from, its hard to judge what you might be leaking.... need more info. pictures will help too

I bet it's just the oil pan. All it takes is just one good torque twist to shift it and it will leak. That's what happens when you put an engine mount on the oil pan. Just keep putting oil in it, since you should already be used to doing so.
