Default question about my car

my car is spitting oil from underneath it. sometimes it will leave a spot as big as a football, and other times it will run and not leak none. still holding about 45 on oil pressure at idle. dont think it is rear main? any suggestions please, i havent been driving my car, im itching to get back in it.

Well to start I would jack it up and see if you can see where it is coming from. Without even having an idea of where it's coming from it could be a hundred different things. How much oil are you actually down?
