Default Found few leaks

I drove the car for few days without checkingthings and today, when I looked I saw:

1. seapage from rear main (fresh oil) and the right hand screw just in the front of the rear main seal in a deep whole (Picture#1).
2. Fron crank seal area, probably the seal, not sure if it might be from a screw (picture#2)
3. The area below the stearing box, where the big screw connects to the drop arm is always wet, no leak from the power steering hose, I don't know if this area can leak or if it is old fluid from my powersteering leak. I did use quite a bit of degreaser before. No dripping just wet (Pic #3)
4. Below the brake reservoir likely from overfield brake reservoir after brake fluid flush (pic #4)
5. Engine drain plug
6. and the known transfer case leak
7. and the known fron diff seal (waiting for the seal to be delievered)
8. and the known exhaust leak when cold

Obviously nothing serious but anoying and costly if I want to fix all of it.
I will use White shephered any other suggestion, should I just keep driving the car and don't worry about it.

2. Perhaps snug up the mounting bolt on the cam shaft position sensor in the front cover.

3. Yes there is a seal in that area (bottom of steering box) that can leak, and a power steering leak stop product may slow that.

5. Usually a washer under the drain plug that needs renewal.

You have "discovered" the first of many leaks.
