Default any one have an oil leak?

My friends gxp has an oil leak someone up front and center. Anyone ever had this? Too cold here for me to take the effort to go under it yet. I'd said I'd take a look online. Oil pan?

check the power steering hose as well, there was an issue with them in cold climate areas and there is TSB on it here somewhere. Not saying this is the issue but I can't remember where the power steering line was leaking from.

Check the lines by the upper side of the rad (Tranny&Oil cooler to rad), the leak will drip down onto the lower rad hose and then migrate to the oil pan. Had mine fixed twice, they replaced the lines up top.
