I'm still thinking you have oil consumption problems.

*looked at picture again.. could be a leak from the valve cover as well...
there was a small amount on the undertray but there were large amounts of oil buildup everywhere on the lower half of the engine which shows that its been sitting there for a while. i'm not gonna rule out oil consumption completely, but at this point it's at least confirmed a leak.

after cleaning up what i could, n inspecting it during the day, my educated guess is that it could be a faulty seal on the headgasket. there's oil coming all the way down from there.
