Leaks can come from anywhere. You need to determine where it is. It could be from anything that has a bad seal. Such as the pan gasket, cooler inlet and outlet lines. Get under it and pin point the leak.

Get under there and clean everything up so you can see where the leak is coming from. I would use some degreaser and then hose it all down. It also helps to lay some cardboard under it so that you can see where the fresh drips are coming from. Mine had a bad leak after I replaced my filter. I removed the gasket and used RVT to make my own gasket and now no more leaks.

If you see the drip coming from a tube you may need to trace it up to the source. Cleaning it is the only way to pin point it.
