Clean your engine/ engine bay really good and make sure you have enough oil in it. Then start it up and look for a leak.

If you cant see any oil coming from anyewhere.

Take the car for a romp around the block. That way it will give the oil enough time to squirt out but not enough time to get everywhere so you cant tell where its coming from.

Then look. And fix the problem.
