It could be something simple and inexpensive like a valve cover gasket or something more expensive like a rear main seal leak. You could try some stop leak but it is better to have it looked at by a mechanic.

How do you know if your strut mounts are bad?

I have a 1990 Chevy Lumina and when you hear clunking sounds when going over bumps or dips or if you have ever replaced your strut assembly you should replace the mounts. You can buy a quickstrut online for a lumina. Front is around $180 and rear is around $80. Hope that helps!
