I would also look for a crack in the oil pan. Hit any big rocks or something similar lately? The oil pan on the 850 is cast aluminum, and is pretty brittle when compared to the stamped steel pans of yesteryear. Those things could take a brutal beating and still remain intact. Maybe pan gasket to, although I've never heard of one of of those go on this site. As was said previously, first (and cheapest and easiest) place to look would be the filter. Either a bad gasket, two gaskets, or the damn thing just worked itself loose.
