i dont need to because what can leak oil from that spot. i own an integra and oil never goes to that area... closest thing that can leak oil is my TURBO and thats like about 6+ inches away if i drew a line going all the way down hitting the floor where my turbo is and then a line to where the little oil spot is. and if i were to draw a line up where oil spot is it would be hitting my FMIC or my front bumper / headlight.

If you are so sure, why bother asking a question. Oil can leak and trickle into different places before it drips down to the ground.
Just get under the car and find the leak.
