Drip, drip, drip... 200

Why don't you go out and look underneath your engine to see where the oil is coming from, and then let us know? It would be easier to be helpful if we knew where the oil was coming from.

While you're at it, do the quick pcv test: with your engine cold so hot oil won't splatter, unscrew the oil fill cap and let it rest on the engine loose where it normally goes. If it stays put, you've got negative air pressure sucking it down, and that's good. If it skitters around, you have positive air pressure in the engine case, and that means you've got a pcv problem of some sort, probably with the flame trap or oil breather.
