It looks to be your oil cooler block-off plate gasket leaking. I've circled the block off plate for you.

What's happening is the oil is leaking out of it and getting slung everywhere by your rotating driveshaft.

It's a 5 minute fix.

You can see the crud collecting on the gasket area. The cleaner areas (around the bolts) is where it is most likely leaking (because it's wet and still clean). Very common leak.
