can you locate the general area its leaking from?
several common areas in them are distributor o rings, cam covers, sump pan.(assuming its engine oil that is)

If it's around the back of the engine then it may be the oil seal betwen the transmission and the engine, which is what's happened to my friends auto FXGT a while back.

Of course, she didn't service it (hadn't for ages beforehand), which is probably why it started leaking (that and age). If it is this, then the engine has to come out so it can be replaced.
