Default is it possible to only leak oil after a hard run?

im pretty sure i have an oil leak, because while moving my car out of parking i saw a fresh oil stain (unless they look fresh for a few days then it might be my mothers lexus?) this morning, i didnt see any oil on the ground where i parked. maybe increased oil pressure or temperature while running makes it possible to go thru small cracks that are otherwise sealed?

its possible. But i would just lay some carboard down on the ground after a hard run and then see if it leaks on the cardboard.

thats what happens when you grow up in the 80s with big v8s that use to guzzle the oil and gas...
