Default leaking oil

I noticed some drops on my driveway took a look couldn't see any obvious place where it was leaking from. So ky question is what usually leaks on these motor wise. I'm 100% sure its oil. I just had the rear main replaced two months ago. It seems to be right above the trans any ideas??

If you just had that seal done, that is where I would start looking. What motor is it? if its a 2nd or 3rd gen, sometimes the oil pressure sending unit can leak and run down the block and it makes it tough to find.
