can't really tell.....maybe it's just oil that came down when they changed the filter? if it's leaving spots on the ground.....take it back to them and find out....

ur oil pan gasket could have a small leak in it causing the oil to slowly leak out

it started very small so i thought it was just an excess amount of oil but as days passed i noticed it getting bigger and creeping down more

it doesn't seem to drip on the ground but not too sure because the floor where the hood sit is wet from my old car's oil leak

yeap time for a new oil pan gasket. the oil filter is on the back side and the leak is coming from the front so it can't be from the oil filter.
