Default Fixing several leaks

Looking for guidance on the theme of common oil leaks. The underside of my truck is very oily all around, most notably seems to be front of oil pan, all the rods, front axle (may be some spilling from a previous ATF leak), plus all the rubber sections in the transmission and oil cooling lines are wet and seem to be oozing.
Where to start? Are all those cooling lines worth changing? (i recently changed the one transmission one from the radiator but the others seem much more complicated and hard to reach). Is the oil pan leak as simple as removing and changing the gasket during an oil change? Other recommendations?

Pursue my thread lol

Oil pan is drop clean reseal

Oil sender leaks through plug

Oil filter pressure relief leaks, oring inside

Power steering clean and tighten hose clamps

Oil, trans, and power steer might just be bad orings in the fittings

Best to degrease everything first though
