@F30NFifty5, doesn't look like it's coming from the front of the OFH. If it is coming from the back or front - good to replace both. But seems like it's from the cap. I would clean up that oil spill then check the cap for cracks and replace the gasket ring on the cap.

It's a good idea to keep a clean engine and bay. That way if you do develop a leak of any kind it's much easier to see where it's coming from.

looks wet/damp which attracts dirt. If so, appears very slow. Clean the engine bay and then look for new traces. How is your oil level staying.

All that you'll accomplish by posting the same picture over and over is to have people get tired of you and put you on their ignore list.
