While changing my oil today I noticed that a one of the stardrive screws holding the belly pan on the car was a bit oily. Upon inspection, a portion of the lower front of the oil pan (front == passengerside) had some oil residue on it. Shining a light up the front of the motor I noted that it appeared that something was leaking oil. No "drips" in 30 minutes of running/sitting that the motor did while on jackstands in the garage. Since the last oil change I didn't notice any unusual oil consumption.
Pictures attached. Any ideas? Something I should be worried about or just keep an eye on the oil level and get it looked at when the timing belt gets done later this spring?
