Oil Leak Help?? Gen 4.5 I4

http://www.aznraps.com/others/nuke/p...s/oil_leak.jpg

It's leaking from that circle (as I can see from the top view of my motor)

How do I stop it from leaking when the engine is turned on?

can't really see clearly from the picture.

could be crankcase seal which is dripping down. check and see if the crankcase seal is clean of oil. mine messed up and it was like 150$ to fix.

rear main seal.

really hard to pin point and with the driving and the wind, it will look like the leak is coming from somewhere else if the winds blows the oil around.
