Shane,
 
Yes I have had this leak before, it is a fairly common thing, fortunately it is also an easy fix.

Thanks for your response guys!
I'll have to get underneath with some good cleaning rags and a flashlight after work, but I also am pretty sure it's the oil pressure sender right behind the oil filter. Anyone else had any leaks appear from their sender? The part's only $40, plus the adaptor and sealing ring, so I'm just going to go ahead and order it. Worst case scenario I have a leak somewhere else, but a new sender. ;)
Thanks!
Shane

Before I get underneath and investigate tonight, I wanted to see if anyone knew of any problem areas around there that leak regularly on our cars? I'm thinking it's possibly the pressure sensor, but I was just wanted to get some intel before I started poking around underneath the engine bay.
