9000 cde oil leak

I appear to have a slight oil leak on my 9000 CDE (automatic). I have noticed evidence of this oil leak in the form of small patches of oil on the driveway where the car is parked. Visual inspection shows evidence of some oil leakage which appears to be coming from the front right hand side. A quick preliminary look has not revealed obvious signs of engine top end leakage. Any suggestions about the most likely sources of this leak?

Thanks Tony

Look around the main crankshaft seal behind the vibration damper. That seal will sometimes leak some and is pretty easy to change.
