If it's an old car and not doing more than a drop or two a day on your driveway, don't sweat it. Things happen like this as old man time wears away on gaskets, seals and other mechanical parts. If it's newer (fewer than 90,000 miles) it truly does depend on where on the engine you see the leak. Lower can be crankcase, upper can be value cover. If it's the head gasket, you'll know! Otherwise, find a local garage your neighbors recommend and get it checked out. Again, if it's a SLOW leak, don't sweat it. I ran a 1982 Toyota with a drip per week crankcase leak for a few years and never had a problem other than cleaning it off my driveway every month or two. I'm cheap that way.
