99 Corolla Leaking Oil

I drove my corolla tonight for about 20 minutes, I sat with the engine on for 2 minutes and then backed up to park when I noticed there was black oil underneath the front end of the car. I'm not sure where the oil is coming from but the oil is black and it is only a little bit of oil is leaking. What should I do next. Is this a big problem? What should I do?

It's leaking from the front end underneath the vehicle. What are the possibilities and how can I find exactly where the oil is coming from?
