Oil leak- steady stream 92 Z71

I was getting my paper this morning and I noticed a leak coming into my drive way.. Sure enough it goes straight to my truck.. I got off work last night and iM about 5 miles away. This is a steady leak the whole way. I keep a tray under were I park at at. Ive had a power steering leak. This pan was filled up. I checked my oil and it is dry as a bone.

I moved it in the garage jacked it up and I see oil about every were. My filter is tight no loose nut. I went got some more oil and gonna fill up and start and wonder if I can see were it is coming from>

Any Ideals on were to start or what it might be or how to find? Tks Fatdaddy

Turns out it was the Oil Filter adapter. What holds the filter and bolts up to the engine.. The seals/gaskets were brittle and breaking away.. cost about $2.00 for a seal. had to buy a pack of different ones. Auto Zone stopped selling them here in my town. They said take it to the dealer. HA!!
