Drained of all oil, my 960 still leaks~! 900 1993

I have left my car drained of what oil I could coax out and yet looking now there are still droplets pooling at the bolts to the oil pan.

Would this lead one to believe that it is leaking at a seal in the rear of the engine?

there are also some leaks at the oil cooler line but that is a bit more cut-and-dry (somewhat).

The leaks are the only thing that are raising doubt in my mind as to whether or not to keep this car. It does need front brakes, the AC does not work but otherwise it runs just fine and is quick for a brick of its girth.
