more than likely from a leaking distributor O-ring or bad valve cover gasket.

Serious question for you...do you ever search for an answer or are you just creating 10 threads a day to increase your post count? All of the **** you ask is basic and can be found on here with a search or two. Your car is 20 years old, do you really think you're the first one to experience any of this?

SEARCH!!!!!!

your car is about 20yrs old and givin the area that the oil is building up it can be 1 of 3 things... or a combo.

1. Oil pan gasket

2. Rear main seal

3. axle seal

Yup! that is the ins plate and the oilpan. Looks like i is the RMS.

Are you sure your oilpan gasket is not leaking?

Then you might want to look at the oil pan gasket.

Sounds like you could've installed it incorrectly then. That sucks! This is how i did it to prevent the inside lip from folding over and causing the seal to leak:
