Common oil leaks

I have a 4afe with a 5 speed, and I was wondering what are the common places for oil leaks?

I know I have one and I can see oil on the pan, and one of the pulleys, not sure which one but its the lower one towards the front of the engine.
Could it be the pan gasket, or possibly a seal somewhere else?

Ok, is anything on the bottom end common?

I'm thinking about replacing all the seals and gaskets soon if I can't figure it out exactly.

Thanks guys btw.
